[Intro]
Am7 C G D
[Verse 1]
Am7Over every dress
CEvery stitch sewn
Your Ggold-chain necklace
Traces Dmy collarbone
Piece of our old home
Am7Under every denim
CButton-up
GYou wear the leather watch you got from your cousin,
While Dmine collects dust on the shelf as it's rustAm7in'
[Refrain]
AfterthoughCt
After dinner, it's too Ghot
So you rest your head in your own bDed
[Chorus]
But I made you my centerAm7piece
You tipped the glass, the water crashed, it all came Cdown
I left the flowers on the carpet where they were Gfound
I watched 'em wither, dusty rose against the Dfaded ground
You just threw 'em out
CenterAm7piece
You took the portrait that I put up over Cour old couch
Faced it against the wall and said the room was Gbetter now
I never said a word right then, but when you're Dnot around
I still take it out
[Verse 2]
Am7During every dinner
CMeal I make
GYou stay silent
'Cept when you Dsay your grace
Bow your head and pray
Am7After every supper
CClear your plate
GYou back the Chevy, you're already down the driveway
While DI wipe the dining table dry of every winestAm7ain
[Refrain]
CAfterthought
August 7th, you forGgot
So I rest my head in my own bDed
[Chorus]
But I made you my centerAm7piece
You tipped the glass, the water splashed, it all came Cdown
I left the flowers on the carpet where they were Gfound
I watched 'em wither, dusty rose against the Dfaded ground
You just threw 'em out
CenterAm7piece
You took the portrait that I put up over Cour old couch
Faced it against the wall and said the room was Gbetter now
I never said a word right then, but when you're Dnot around
I still take it out
[Bridge]
Am7Close the Cdoor
What's it all Gfor?
Count the cracks in the ceiling
'Till there's Dno more feeling
Close my eyes 'till we do it once Am7more
Can't reCstore
What you aGdored
And the time keeps slippin'
As the Dclock keeps tickin'
Close my eyes 'till we do it once Am7more
We do it once Cmore
We do it once Gmore
We did it once Dbefore
[Chorus]
When I made you my centerAm7piece
I filled the glass, the water splashed, but it all was Csound
I picked the flowers from the garden where they were Gfound
I watched 'em flourish, brilliant rose against the Dsoil ground
You just threw 'em out
CenterAm7piece
I drew the portrait that I put up over Cour old couch
Put it upon the wall and said the room was Gbetter now
You never said a word right then, but when I'm Dnot around
You still take it down
