G Em C Am
Verse I
Well the Groom was Mediterranean
The Emmeaning was twofold
We got Cbusted by your mother
Though you're Am29 years old
And the Gpictures wrapped in cellophane
Like Emsandwiches or stamps
CBurnholes in my pockets
And in the Aminseams of my pants
And your Ggraduation date
was in absEmentia* today
And you Cwished you woulda stuck with him
Though you Amtold him not to stay
And the Gredwoods and the oak trees
And the Emdouble yellow lines
Although Cthey're in perfect symmetry
They Amkeep imperfect time
Chorus (play 2x)
I don't mean Gno,
I don't Emmaybe
I'm in definitelCy
I'm in definitelAmy
Verse II
GWell your car was Japanese
perhaps EmHungarian and blue
And it folClowed you down highway 1,
kept aAmlmost out of view
And it symbGolizes something
although you Emdon't know what it is
Like lonCeliness or longing
for a fAmuture perfect kiss
Repeat chorus
I don't mean Gno,
I don't Emmaybe
I'm in definitelCy
I'm in definitelAmy
Bridge
(solo plays over verse)
EmThe second hand's the first thing that you Gsee when you wake up
And it Cgoes by in slow motion, and you Amrub it for good luck
Time isEm gonna tell your little secrGets to me
There's a fCrightened girl inside of you and I'm Amgonna set her free
