[Cm] [Bbsus4] [Ab]
Verse 1
[Eb] [Bbsus4] [Ab]
He's the kinda man that never needed help from anybody
[Eb] [Bbsus4] [Ab]
Gunner was a one-man-show in a two-light-town
[Eb] [Bbsus4]
Gabby was his high-school-sweetheart
[Ab]
The first couple years were the best part
[Cm] [Bbsus4] [Ab]
But they never broke up 'cause they didn't wanna let folks down
Chorus
[Eb] [Cm] [Bbsus4]
And it's too bad that watering the seeds never helped the flowers to grow
[Ab] [Eb] [Cm] [Bbsus4]
And it's too bad reading of your vows doesn't mean you have and you hold
[Ab] [Eb] [Bbsus4] [Ab]
It's ever so sad, Gunner built a house and Gabby never felt at home
[Fm] [Cm]
And they never lost faith, but they ended up praying alone
Instrumental
[Bbsus4] [Ab]
Verse 2
[Eb] [Bbsus4] [Ab]
She's the kind of mom that never opened up to anybody
[Eb] [Bbsus4] [Ab]
Eight years in and there's two more mouths to feed
[Eb] [Bbsus4]
Gabby had to break it to 'em somehow
[Ab]
Gunner was around but he had checked out
[Cm] [Bbsus4] [Ab]
And Emma was the only one old enough to know what it means
Chorus

Verse 3
[Ab] [Eb]
Gunner was the guy that could fix anything
[Ab]
But he couldn't solve the puzzle in his wedding ring
[Cm] [Bb] [Ab]
Gabby came up with one last plan of attack
[Bb]
'We'll call Father Johnson, early tomorrow
[Eb] [Ab]
'Cause day after day we're heavy with sorrow'
[Cm] [Bb] [Ab]
Talked about the promises and ended up taking them back
Chorus
[Eb] [Cm] [Bbsus4]
And it's too bad that watering the seeds never helped the flowers to grow
[Ab] [Eb] [Cm] [Bbsus4]
And it's too bad reading of your vows doesn't mean you have and you hold
[Ab] [Eb] [Cm] [Bb] [Ab]
It's ever so sad, that Gunner built a house and Gabby never felt at home

And they never lost faith, but they ended up praying alone
