Version 1[Verse] Em G It was two weeks after the day she turned 18 Em G All dressed in white, going to the church that night Em G She had his box of letters in the passenger seat Em G Six pins and a shoe, something borrowed, something blue C Em And when the church doors opened up wide C Em G She put her veil down trying to hide the tears Oh she just couldn't believe it C She heard the trumpets from the military band D And the flowers fell out of her hands [Chorus] G Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go Em C I was counting on forever, now I'll never know G D I can't even breathe G It's like I'm looking from a distance, standing in the background Em C Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now, G D This can't be happening to me Em G This is just a dream [Verse] Em G The preacher man said let us bow our head and pray Em G Lord please lift his soul and heal this hurt Em Then the congregation all stood up G Em G And sang the saddest song that she ever heard C Then they handed her a folded up flag C G And she held on to all she had left of him Oh, and what could've been Am And then guns rang one last shot D And it felt like a bullet in her heart [Chorus] G Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go Em C I was counting on forever, now I'll never know G D I can't even breathe G It's like I'm looking from a distance, standing in the background Em C Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now, G D This can't be happening to me Em G This is just a dream G Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go Em C I was counting on forever, now I'll never know G D I can't even breathe G It's like I'm looking from a distance, standing in the background Em C Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now, G D This can't be happening to me Em G This is just a dream
