[Intro]
C F C F
[Verse]
CA pressed shirt, you tuck it in
FYou tie your tie, tie it again
CI put a little curl in my hair
FPink on my cheeks, barely there
CA proper skirt, hits at the knee
FA good sweater in wintergreen
CYou shake the keys downstairs
FI hit the lights not a minute to spare
Slip a fAmive in the GBible for the offerinFg plate
What a bAmeautiful picGture we both Fmake
[Chorus]
CYou drive, I look out the window
FIt’s not right, but nobody says so
AmWe walk  in and head to the same pew
FAnd hold hands, just like we’re supposed to
CBut last night you slept on the sofa
FAnd these days I don’t even know ya
AmWe fight like Ghell but nobody Fknows
Fwhen we’re wearing our church Cclothes
[Verse]
CWe stand up, we sing a hymn
FWe say a prayer for other friends
CWe’re turning to the Book of John
FAnd I'm thinking how I can’t go on
But we sAmmile, and we Ggive it our SunFday best
FIf we’re Amlost, couldn’t Gtell by the way we’re Fdressed
[Chorus]
CYou drive, I look out the window
FIt’s not right but nobody says so
AmWe walk in, I head to the bedroom
FBut you don’t, you do what you want to
CLike last week, when you packed a suitcase
FAnd came close to getting your own place
AmOh that’s the Gstuff that nobody Fknows
Fwhen we’re wearing our church clothesAm  
[Bridge]
Am G F
AmOh we don’t speak
GDon’t touch as if Fnobody Cwatching us
AmLord knows we’ve got it Gdown
FWhat would they say, if we gave up
[Chorus]
CYou drive, I look out the window
FIt’s not right but nobody says so
AmWe walk in, like Gwe’ve never been so cloFse
AmMiles apart, but Gcareful that it don’t sFhow
Fwhen we’re wearing our church Cclothes
[Outro]

[Intro]

C F C F

[Verse]

A pressed shirt, you tuck it in

You tie your tie, tie it again

I put a little curl in my hair

Pink on my cheeks, barely there

A proper skirt, hits at the knee

A good sweater in wintergreen

You shake the keys downstairs

I hit the lights not a minute to spare

Am G F

Slip a five in the Bible for the offering plate

Am G F

What a beautiful picture we both make

[Chorus]

You drive, I look out the window

It’s not right, but nobody says so

We walk in and head to the same pew

And hold hands, just like we’re supposed to

But last night you slept on the sofa

And these days I don’t even know ya

Am G F

We fight like hell but nobody knows

F C

when we’re wearing our church clothes

[Verse]

We stand up, we sing a hymn

We say a prayer for other friends

We’re turning to the Book of John

And I'm thinking how I can’t go on

Am G F

But we smile, and we give it our Sunday best

F Am G F

If we’re lost, couldn’t tell by the way we’re dressed

[Chorus]

You drive, I look out the window

It’s not right but nobody says so

We walk in, I head to the bedroom

But you don’t, you do what you want to

Like last week, when you packed a suitcase

And came close to getting your own place

Am G F

Oh that’s the stuff that nobody knows

F Am

when we’re wearing our church clothes

[Bridge]

Am G F

Oh we don’t speak

G F C

Don’t touch as if nobody watching us

Am G

Lord knows we’ve got it down

What would they say, if we gave up

[Chorus]

You drive, I look out the window

It’s not right but nobody says so

Am G F

We walk in, like we’ve never been so close

Am G F

Miles apart, but careful that it don’t show

F C

when we’re wearing our church clothes

[Outro]

F G C
