[Verse 1]
    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 2]
    Em                                         G
The preacher man said let us bow our heads 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
