You get her laughin', it's two AM

You're tellin' your buddies three months in

She ain't movin' in, the next thing you know
Dm9
There's a U-Haul trailer, next thing you know
Csus4
Your old apartment is y'all's new place
but the deer head stays
Chorus 1
You're savin' money like never before
Dm9
Just to spend it all at a jewelry store
on her mama's porch
Bbsus2
Just prayin' she don't say, "No"
Your best man gives a half-drunk speech
Dm9
And you're sunburned on a honeymoon beach

And your left hand's gettin' used to that ring
Bbsus2
And there the next two or three years go
Next thing you know

You weren't really tryin', next thing you know

noddin' her head, "Yes"

You're half excited, half scared to death
Chorus 2
You're wearin' scrubs and a funny white hat
"How you doin' there, dad?"
Csus4
And nobody's ever called you that
Bbsus2
And you take the drive home slow
It's first steps, first dates, first car
Dm9
It's eleven oh one wonderin' where they are

You're sayin' that USC's too far

It's amazing how fast seventeen years go

And you take 'em to church, teach 'em to fish

And you tell 'em stories every chance you get
