[D] [F] [G]
[C] Met my old [Am] lover in the grocery [Em] store, [C] the snow was falling [Am] Christmas Eve.
[C] I stole behind her [Am] in the frozen foods, [F#] and I touched her [F] on the sleeve.
[G]
[C] She didn't [Am] recognize the face at [C] first, but then her eyes [Am] flew open wide.
[C] She went to hug [Am] me and she spilled her purse, and [F#] we [Bm] laughed [D] until [F] we cried.

[C] Took her groceries [Am] to the checkout stand, food was bottled up in bags.
[C] We stood there lost [Am] in our embarrassment [D] as the [Bm] [D] [F] conversation dragged.
[G]
[C] Went to have [Am] ourselves a drink or two, [C] but couldn't find [Am] an open bar.
We bought a six-pack at the liquor store, [D] and we drank it [F] in her [G] car.
[Am] We drank [F] our toast to innocence, [G] we drank our toast [Am] to now.
[Em] We [Am] tried to reach [F] beyond the emptiness, [G] but neither one knew how.
[C] She said she married [Am] her in art,
[C] and kept her warm and [Am] safe and dry.
[C]
She would have liked to [Am] say she loved the man, [D] but she didn't like [F] the lie.
[G] I
[C] said the years had [Am] been a friend to [G] her, [C] and that her eyes were [A] still as blue.
[G]
[C] But in those eyes I [Am] wasn't sure if [G] I [D] saw doubt or [F] gratitude.
[G]
[C] She said she saw me [Am] in the record store, [G]
[C] and that I [Am] must be doing well.
[C] I said the audience [Am] was heavenly, but [D] the traveling [F] was [G] hell.
[Am] We drank our toast [F] to innocence, we [G] drank our [Am] toast to now.
[Em] [Am]
We tried to reach [F] beyond the emptiness, [G]
but neither one knew how.
[Am]
We drank our [F] toast to innocence, [G] we drank our toast [Am] to time.
[Em] [Am]
We're living [F] in our eloquence, [G]
another [C] old [G] man's son.
[C] The beer was [Am] empty and our tongues were [G] tired, [C] running out [Am] of things to say.
[C] She gave a kiss to me [B] as I [Am] gasped, [D] and I watched her drive [F] away.
[G] [C] Just for a moment [Am] I was back at school, [G]
[C] and felt that old [Am] familiar pain.
[C] And as I turned to [Am] make my way back [G] home, [D] the snow turned into [C] rain.
