Chords for Veil Of White Lace ----- Michael O'Brien + Lyrics Underneath

_ [D] _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ [A] _ _ _
The church door was open _ as I stepped [E] inside. _
I went there hoping _ that she'd change [A] her mind. _
There were beautiful roses _ in the bridal [D] bouquet,
where she stood at [A] the altar [E] in a veil of [A] white lace. _
A stranger in silence reached out for [E] her hand _
and placed on her finger a gold wedding [A] band. _
There was happiness written _ in the smile on his [D] face, _
but I [A] couldn't see hers, [E] neither veil of [A] white lace. _
I pitied that stranger _ for all he [E] could see. _
Was there life _ together for [A] eternity? _ _
My heart filled with anger when I pictured [D] the face
of a false [A]-hearted quitter [E] in a veil of [A] white lace. _

[F] I reached in [Bb] my pocket _ when the wedding [F] was done. _
My hand touched a locket, then fell on [Bb] a gun. _ _
It shattered the silence _ as it left [Eb] its trail. _
_ Strings of [Bb] red crimson on a [F] veil of [Bb] white lace. _
I ran from the church door as I threw down [F] my gun, _
but stopped at the doorstep for there crossing [Bb] the lawn. _
My darling said she _ had decided [Eb] to wait,
get to a [Bb] _ stranger [F] beneath a veil of [Bb] white lace. _
