Funeral Suit Second Wife

Intro

Verse 1 Same suit, second wife, same church Same pew where my first one perched Same hymn for the start and stop Same prayer for the bottom and top

Pre-Chorus And the pastor's voice is a worn-down road And the rings I keep in a single mode And nobody in this room's surprised And nobody in this town's surprised

Chorus Funeral suit, second wife Wore the black to bury a life Wore the black to take the vow Cleanest knot I've tied til now

Verse 2 Cousins eyeing the casserole Mother's photograph on the bowl Twenty months between the two Black coat got a lot to do

Pre-Chorus And the pastor's voice is a worn-down road And the rings I keep in a single mode And nobody in this room's surprised And nobody in this town's surprised

Chorus Funeral suit, second wife Wore the black to bury a life Wore the black to take the vow Cleanest knot I've tied til now

Bridge Maybe love's a borrowed seat Maybe grief's a shorter sheet Maybe the second time you know That the suit's the only thing that's slow Funeral suit, second wife Wore the black to bury a life Wore the black to take the vow Cleanest knot I've tied til now Cleanest knot I've tied til now
