       E              B
Sunday Shoes, Cap and Gown

    C#m                 A
The whole town gathered around 

       E                 B                 C#m    A
Waited 18 years now its all comin down to this.

              E                     B 
I scanned the crowd and it fills my soul

        C#m                 A 
My best friends all here in rows 

   E                     B                 C#m   B
No turning back, Now its time to walk that line 

     A               B
This tassel is gonna turn 

             E      B/D#   C#m
But when the moment passes by 

           B
Well just walk away

            A 
Then slowly grow apart 

            E          B/E   A
But Im not gonna cry, no 

               E         B/E  A
Not one sad or happy tear

C#m                    D   A                    E    C#m  A
Its a bittersweet goodbye,   but Im not gonna cry 

       E               B 
Friday night, football games,

      C#m                  A 
First loves and first heartbreaks,

         E                 B 
It didnt matter who won or lost,

            C#m     A 
Only how we played, 

    E               B
Memories as good as gold,

        C#m               A 
Tearin' up those mountain roads,

E          B                C#m   B 
racin' out 53, to old georgetown, 

A                     B

            E    B/D#     C#m 
but learned from every mistake, 

          B
