WATER AT A WEDDING
As recorded by Greylan James
(2025 release)


[Intro]
Dmaj7    Amaj7    Dmaj7    Amaj7


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


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


[Verse 2]
     Dmaj7
Your husband's got a beer
Dmaj7
And he handed you champagne
Amaj7
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]
                Dmaj7
You're drinking water at your wedding, girl
Amaj7
Ain't no bubbles up in that drink
         Dmaj7
If I'm a betting man I'm betting, girl
                 Amaj7
You're scared to death of what this small town would think
                   Dmaj7
Well, I think them tears ain't happy tears
Dmaj7
I think you don't love him at all
             Amaj7
I think that two pink lines appeared
Amaj7
Now you can't have no alcohol
        Dmaj7
Daddy's shotgun and your momma's pearls
         Amaj7                                           Dmaj7
Drinking water at your wedding, water at your wedding, girl


[Post-Chorus]
 Amaj7
Yeah
                        Dmaj7    Amaj7
Water at your wedding girl


[Bridge]
      Dmaj7
About 2 A.M
                           Amaj7
2 months ago you showed up drunk at my place
Amaj7
Started tearing off clothes
             Dmaj7
Now we ain't talked about it sense
Dmaj7
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
         Dmaj7
If I'm a betting man I'm betting, girl
     Amaj7
Your secret's gonna have my eyes
             Dmaj7
I think them tears ain't happy tears
Dmaj7
I think you don't love him at all
             Amaj7
I think that two pink lines appeared
Amaj7
Now you can't have no alcohol
        Dmaj7
Daddy's shotgun and your momma's pearls
         Amaj7                                           Dmaj7
Drinking water at your wedding, water at your wedding, girl


[Outro]
Amaj7    Dmaj7    Amaj7
