(Verse 1)
Well, I (Dmaj7)didn't want to show up
But our (Dmaj7)families go way back
So, (Amaj7)when you said your vows
That's exactly where I sat
Thank (Dmaj7)god for open bars
eCause (Dmaj7)watching this s**t ain't easy
And in the (Amaj7)middle of y'all's first dance,
Couldn't (Amaj7)help but see you see me

(Pre-Chorus)
(Dmaj7) And in a flash I'm back to sippin' Jack with you
(Amaj7) Before you found Mr. Ole Miss
(Dmaj7) You tipped your glass at me behind his back and
(Amaj7) I couldn't help but notice...

(Chorus)
You're drinking (Dmaj7)water at your wedding, girl
(Amaj7)Ain't no bubbles up in that drink
If I'm a (Dmaj7)betting man I'm betting, girl
You're scared to (Amaj7)death of what this small town would think
Well, I think them (Dmaj7)tears ain't happy tears, I think you don't love him at all
I think that (Amaj7)two pink lines appeared, now you can't have no alcohol
Daddy's (Dmaj7)shotgun and your momma's pearls
Drinking (Amaj7)water at your wedding, water at your wedding, girl
(Dmaj7) / / / |(Amaj7) / / / |

(Verse 2)
Your (Dmaj7)husband's got a beer, and he handed you champagne
(Dmaj7) And yeah, I saw you, (Amaj7)pour it down that vase

(Pre-Chorus)
(Dmaj7) And don't be looking at me like you miss me
(Amaj7) Hey, I'm just throwing back whiskey while

(Chorus)
You're drinking (Dmaj7)water at your wedding, girl
Ain't no (Amaj7)bubbles up in that drink
If I'm a (Dmaj7)betting man I'm betting, girl
You're scared to (Amaj7)death of what this small town would think
Well, I think (Dmaj7)them tears ain't happy tears, I think you don't love him at all
I think that (Amaj7)two pink lines appeared, now you can't have no alcohol
Daddy's (Dmaj7)shotgun and your momma's pearls
Drinking (Amaj7)water at your wedding, water at your wedding, girl

(Post-Chorus)
(Dmaj7) Yeah (Amaj7)
Water at your wedding girl (Dmaj7) (Amaj7)

(Bridge)
About (Dmaj7)2 A.M, 2 months ago
You showed up (Amaj7)drunk at my place, started tearing off clothes
Now we ain't (Dmaj7)talked about it sense, but sitting here, I'm thinking
(Amaj7)What if I'm the reason that you're up there drinking

(Chorus)
(Dmaj7)Water at your wedding, girl
(Amaj7)I guess we'll know in time
If I'm a (Dmaj7)betting man I'm betting, girl
Your (Amaj7)secret's gonna have my eyes
I think them (Dmaj7)tears ain't happy tears, I think you don't love him at all
I think that (Amaj7)two pink lines appeared, now you can't have no alcohol
Daddy's (Dmaj7)shotgun and your momma's pearls
Drinking (Amaj7)water at your wedding, water at your wedding, girl
