Class Rings

Capo: 4th fret

[Intro]
G  B  Em  C
 
 
[Verse 1]
                G                     D/F#
Even my momma believed him, my little sister was attached
    Em7                                 C
And dad always said that he was the son he never had
                    G             D/F#
We said forever for four years, I swore he was the one
        Em7                      D         C
But the one don't drive away for good in a beat-up Chevy truck
D
No, that ain't love
 
 
[Chorus]
           C                          G
That's why class rings aren't made of diamonds
          C                  G                    D
And being sixteen don't mean you should have your license
             C                                G             Em7
You're gonna crash a car, break a heart, it's never perfect timing
                   C
You shouldn't have nice things
               D
And that's why class rings
               C
Arеn't made of diamonds
 
 
[Verse 2]
                       G                  D/F#
Now when I go home for Christmas and takе exit 108
       Em7                                   C
Drive around that bend where way back when I felt my first heartbreak
             G                    D/F#
Been so many years now since I've stopped at these red lights
        Em                                C
It took moving on for me to come back and finally realize
 
 
[Chorus]
D          C                          G
That's why class rings aren't made of diamonds
          C                  G                    D
And being sixteen don't mean you should have your license
             C                                G             Em7
You're gonna crash a car, break a heart, it's never perfect timing
                   C
You shouldn't have nice things
               D
And that's why class rings
               C
Arеn't made of diamonds
C
(Mm, mm-mm-mm)
 
 
[Bridge]
D           Am
Now I met a new guy and yeah, he might
         Em           D
Not have been my prom king
       Am
But he treats me like a queen
            Em          D
And soon as he got on one knee
 
 
[Chorus]
          C                          G
I see why class rings aren't made of diamonds
          C                  G                    D
And being sixteen don't mean you should have your license
             C                                G             Em7
You're gonna crash a car, break a heart, it's never perfect timing
                   C
You shouldn't have nice things
               D
And that's why class rings
               G
Arеn't made of diamonds
           D/F#  Em7  C
(Mm, mm-mm-mm)
 
 
[Outro]
                G
Even my momma believed him
