By: Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit Intro: D Em G D Em G D Verse I:
G                     D
Ten years out of high school

G                     D
Still no idea what to do

G                        D
You took him home from a night club

G                       D
He took a night club to you
Verse II:
G                       D
Now I watch from the window

G             D
Too guilty to scream

G                D
My feet are like steel, I

G             D
Might be in a dream
Bridge:
                 A                                 G             D
But every time I see you, you look bigger than you did the day before

              A                                G   D
Even though I know it's not my fault I wish it was

           A                           G                  D
I can only ride the elevator all night long from floor to floor

               A                                G    D
And I can only stand outside your window in the dust
Chorus:
               D            Em
So how about a shotgun wedding

                G      D
What about your dignity

                            Em
What about a different setting

           G  D
What about me

                            Em
All your daddy's wishes, honor

            G       D
All of that security

                         Em
How about a shotgun wedding

           G  D
What about me
Verse III:
G               D
I guess I'm a loner

G              D
Some call me a freak

G               D
Saw  you in the hallway

G             D
Too guilty to speak
Verse IV:
G                     D
Now I sleep in the daytime

G                  D
And I sleep on the floor

G           D
I dial your number

G                   D
And I knock on your door
Bridge:
                 A                                   G            D
But every time I hear your voice or footsteps, I get frozen in my place

              A                                G   D
And I have to struggle for the courage just to run

      A                                          G               D
I can see the eyes of all the ones that left you glowing in your face

                 A                                     G   D
And I just wanna help you with this life that you've begun
Chorus:
               D            Em
So how about a shotgun wedding

                G      D
What about your dignity

                            Em
What about a different setting

           G  D
What about me

                            Em
All your daddy's wishes, honor

            G       D
All of that security

                          Em
What about a shotgun wedding

           G  D
What about me

             D            Em
What about a shotgun wedding

           G    D 
What about me
