A Church, a Courtroom, and Then Goodbye Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][C][C#][D][G]
[D]The

[Verse 1]
[G]first scene was the church,
then the [D]altar,
[Am]Wher[D]e we claimed each other,
with tears of [Am]joy [G]we c[D]ried.[G]
Our friends wished us luck
there [C]forever[G],[C]
As [G]we [D]walked from the church,
side [G]by side.

[Verse 2]
The [G]next scene was a
[Bm]crowded [D]courtroom,
And like strangers we sat side [G]by side.
Then I heard the judge
make his de[C]cision,
And [G]no [D]longer were we
man an[G]d wife.

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][G]
[D]I hate

[Verse 3]
[G]the sight of that cou[D]rtroom,
[Am]Where [D]man-made laws laws push
God's [G]laws [D]aside.[G]
Then the clerk wrote our story in
the re[C]cord [G]~[C][D]
A church, a courtroom and then [G]goodbye.

[Verse 4]
We [G]walked from that courtroom [D]together,
We shook hands and once
again we [G]cried.
Then it was the end [C]of [G]our story:
A [D]church, a courtroom and then goodbye.

[Outro 1]
[G]
