Sounds correct, learned it by ear. Hope everyone enjoys! :D
          F
After the breakup,

                      G
I really thought we'd make up.

                  Am
Give her a little time, I'd be on her mind

                   F
And suddenly she'd wake up.

                 F
But today if you listen,

                  G
Softly off in the distance,

                 Am
Somewhere 'cross town, you can hear the sound

                 F
Of wedding bells ringing.

            F
And there's bird seed on the concrete,

    F                G
And she's waving goodbye

                    F
And they're driving away

    F                       G                   F
And everybody cheerin' them on as the taillights fade

     F            G
Yeah she's really gone,

              F   G          G7
I thought someday that would be me

                      F                 G
But now she's driving away in that limousine

                F
And I'm holdin' on

       G             F
Like a tin can on a string.

             F
Somewhere in my mind,

               G
I'm the one by her side.

            Am
In that backseat, talkin' 'bout the beach

                  F
And that honeymoon flight.

                   F
I'd play the whole thing out,

                 G
From the kids to the house,

       Am                            F
To the future that we always dreamed about.

            F
But there's bird seed on the concrete,

    F                G
And back here in reality

              F
She's driving away

         F                  G                   F
And everybody cheerin' them on as the taillights fade

     F            G
Yeah she's really gone,

              F   G          G7
I thought someday that would be me

                      F                 G
But now she's driving away in that limousine

                F
And I'm holdin' on

       G            F
Like a tin can on a string.
F F G F
              F   G          G7
I thought someday that would be me

                      F                 G
But now she's driving away in that limousine

            Am                      F
And I'm not ready to let go of everything

               F              G
So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on
*Short Pause*
                    F
Like a tin can on a string.
