_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [G] _ _ [C]
Met my old lover [Am] in the grocery [B] store, [C]
snow was falling [Am] Christmas Eve.
_ [C]
I stole behind her [Am] in the frozen foods and I [D] touched her [F] on the _ [G] sleeve.
[C]
She didn't [Am] recognize the face at [C] first, but then her eyes [Am] blew open _ wide.
[C]
She went to hug [Am] me and she spilled her purse and [D] we [Bm] laughed until [F] we cried.
[G] _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [F] _ _ [G] _ _ [C] _
Took her groceries to the jack-up stand, _ food was totaled up in bags.
[G] _ [C]
We stood there lost [Em] in our [Am] embarrassment [D] as the _ _ [F] conversation dragged.
[G] _ _ [C] _
Went to have ourselves a drink or two, but couldn't find [Am] an open _ bar.
She bought us things back at the liquor store [D] and we drank it [F] in her [G] car.
_ [Am] _
We drank our [F] toast to innocence, [G] we drank our toast [Am] to now.
_ [C] _ _ [Am] _
Tried to reach [F] beyond the emptiness, [G] but neither one knew how.
_ _ [C]
She said she married [Am] her an architect, _ [C] _
kept her [Am] warm and safe and dry.
[C] _ _
She would have liked to [Am] say she loved the man, [F#] but she didn't like [F] the lie.
[G] I _ [C] _
said the years had [Am] been a friend to [G] her, [C] _
that her eyes were [Dm] still as blue.
[G] _ [C] _
In those eyes I [Am] wasn't sure if I [D] sought out her [F] gratitude.
_ [G] _ _ [C]
She said she saw me [Am] in the record stores, [G] _ [C] _
that I must be doing well. _
I said the audience [Am] was heavenly, but [D] the traveling [F] was [G] hell.
_ [Am] _
We drank our toast [F] to innocence, we [G]
drank our toast to [Am] now.
_ [Em] _ _ [Am]
Tried to reach beyond [F] the emptiness, _ [G] but neither one knew how.
_ _ [Am] _
We drank [F] our toast to innocence, [G] we drank our toast [Am] to [Em] time.
_ [Am] _
We're living [F] in our eloquence, _ [G] another [C] _ [G] old man's time. _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] The beer was empty and [Am] our tongues were [G] tired, [C] running out of things [Am] to say.
_ [C] _ She gave a [Am] kiss to me as I got out, [D] and I watched [Bm] her drive [F] away.
[G] _ _ [C] Just for a moment I was [Am] back in school, _ [G] _ [C]
and felt that old [A] familiar _ [G] pain. _
[C] _ _ _ And as I turned [Am] to make my way back [G] home, [D] the snow [G] turned _ [D] into _ [F] _ rain.
