[Verse 1]
Well Cyou are still here
And GI am still here
CWhether I ever lC7oved you is
Not Fperfectly clear.
You Cwent a semester to GWest Texas State
But the Cfreshmen fiftC7een you gained
FKilled all your dates.
I Cguess I still love you if GI ever did
And I can Csee myself C7having a Fcouple of kids
And Cwe will get byG  
                    C    F, C, C7
For the rest of our lives
[Bridge]
So play the FCotton-Eyed Joe
For the Cfolks don't you know
Keep the dogs in the truck
Til you Gleave
We got some Cwieners and C7buns
When the Fbrisket's all gone
For our Cwedding in Gsuburban CSeguin
[Chorus 2]
Well CI am still here
And Gyou are still here
Whether CI ever C7loved you is
Not Fperfectly clear
The Cweight's not an issue Gyou have gained more
And when CI said I C7do well I Fslammed all the doors
To a Cfuture where I could see GParis in spring
But I Cwasn't preC7pared for the Fweight of this ring.
But Cwe will get byG  
                    C    F,C,C7
For the rest of our lives
[Bridge]
So play the FCotton-Eyed Joe
For the Cfolks don't you know
Keep the dogs in the truck
Til you Gleave
We got some Cwieners and C7buns
When the Fbrisket's all gone
For our Cwedding in Gsuburban CSeguin
Steel Guitar and Fiddle Instrumental

So play some Fold BTO
For our Cfriends don't you know
Keep your dogs in the truck
Til you Gleave
Get out the Cwieners and C7buns
Cause the Fbrisket's all gone
At our Cwedding in Gsuburban CSeguin
I said I Clove you in Gsuburban CSeguin

The story behind the song

Charlie Robison was a country music singer-songwriter who began his career in Austin, Texas, before releasing solo albums like Step Right Up, where "The Wedding Song" appears. This song captures a weary, yet enduring, love, one that acknowledges both its imperfections and its persistence. It speaks to a relationship that has weathered time, where the initial spark might be gone, but the connection remains, even "when the brisket's all gone" and life settles into suburban routines. It’s a candid look at love that endures despite, or perhaps because of, its raw honesty.
