C
We said ‘til death do us part’

                             F
But death didn't come quick enough

F
Maybe we did it all wrong

G
Kinda fucked everything up

    C
The promises turned into prisons

                        Am
On either side of the divide

F
It was til death do us part

                 G
‘Til we knew our hearts had already died
[Chorus]
       F            C          G
It’s a long road to get to the gold

                   C         F
We made it through paper and wood

                           Dm       C
We couldn't survive as the marrying kind

    F       G            C    G
But we do divorce pretty good
[Verse 2]
C
Just like a long vacation

                       F
I left with a few souvenirs

F
That I wouldn't trade for the world

    G
And I couldn't buy with my tears

C
Morе than I had ever wanted

                             Am
Just onе little pink and one blue

   F
If I wasted most of my best years

         G
I'm glad they were wasted with you
[Chorus]
       F            C          G
It’s a long road to get to the gold

                   C         F
We made it through paper and wood

                           Dm       C
We couldn't survive as the marrying kind

    F       G            C
But we do divorce pretty good
[Bridge]
F                    G
We may have left our run too late

    C               G/B       Am
And walked down the aisle too soon

    F
But not everything, has a forever ring

   G
We sure ain't no Johnny and June
[Out-Chorus]
       F            C          G
It’s a long road to get to the gold

                   C         F
We made it through paper and wood

                           Dm       C
We couldn't survive as the marrying kind

    F       G            C
But we do divorce pretty good

     F        C           Dm       C
We'd never survive as the marrying kind

    F       G            C
But we do divorce pretty good
