When you took...
Verse 1:
When you took that [D]ring off,[Em] balled it in your [C]fist
[C]Eyes like a smoking [D]gun, sur[Em]prised at what you [C]did [C]
So [D]don't even think for one [Em]second you're following [C]me in[C]
My [D]parents are hom[Em]e, so is my [C]kid[C]
Pre-Chorus:
Just go [Am]on. That h[Bm]ouse that you h[C]ate
That [C]house that we [Em]bought and f[D]ailed to [C]make[C]
Verse 2:
When you took that [D]ring off,[Em] I sat there [C]stunned
[C]Parked out in my [D]car, sur[Em]prised at what you'd [C]done[C]
The [D]courage that must have [Em]took left me utterly [C]speechless[C]
And [D]though it came as no sur[Em]prise I still couldn't be[C]lieve it[C]
Pre-Chorus:
[Em] [D] [C] [Em] [D] [C]

When you took that [D]ring off,[Em] threw it at your [C]feet
You [C]didn't say a [D]word, [Em]much less look at [C]me[C]
