MeCt my old lover in a groceAmry store
ThCe snow was falling Christmas eve Am
I Cstole behind her in the frozeAmn foods
And I toD7uchFed her on her sleFm7eve G
ShCe didn't recognize the faceAm at first
BuCt then her eye flew open wideAm
ShCe went to hug me and she spillAmed her purse
And we lauD7ghed until we crFm7ied. G
ShCe took her groc'ries to the checkAm out stand
ThCe food was totaled up and baggAmed
WeC stood there lost in our embarrAmassment
As the convD7ersation dragFm7ged G
WeCnt to have ourselves a drinAmk or two
BuCt couldn't find and open barAm
BoCught a six pack at the liquoAmr store
And we drD7ank it in her Fm7car.G
Refrain:
AmWe drank a toast to innoFcence
We drGank a toast to Amnow
AmWe tried to reach beyond the emptFiness
But neGither one knew how.
(2nd Verse Chords
She said she married her an architect
Who kept her warm and safe and dry
She would've liked to say she loved the man
But she didn't like to lie.
I said the years had been a friend to her
And her eyes was still as blue
But in those eyes I wasn't sure if I
Saw a doubt of gratitude.
ShCe said she saw in the recoAmrd stores
AnCd that I must be doinAmg well
I Csaid the audience was heavAmenly
But the traD7velling was Fhell.
Refrain:
AmWe drank a toast to innoFcence
We drGank a toast to Amnow
AmWe tried to reach beyond the emptFiness
But neGither one knew how.
AmWe drank a toast to innFocence
We drGank a toast to Amtime.
AmReliving in our eloquFence
AnoGther "auld lang syne."
(2nd Verse Chords
The beer was empty and our tongues were tired
And running out of things to say
She gave a kiss to me as I got out
And I watched her drive away
Just for a moment I was back in school
And felt that old familiar pain
And as I turned to make my way back home
The snow turned into rFm7ain.G G
