[C]The church door was opened and I stepped [G7]inside
I went there hoping that she'd change her [C]mind
There were beautiful roses in a[C7] bridal [F]bouquet
Where she stood at the[C] alter in a[G7] veil of white [C]lace
A stranger in silence reached out for her [G7]hand
And placed on her finger a gold weddin[C]g band
There was happiness written in the[C7] smile on his [F]face
But I couldn't [C]see hers beneath the[G7] veil of white [C]lace
I pitied that stranger for all he could [G7]see
Was their life together until eterni[C]ty
My heart filled with anger as I[C7] pictured the [F]face
Of a false hearted [C]quitter beneath a[G7] veil of white [C]lace
I reached in my pocket when the wedding was [G7]done
My hand touched a locket then it fell on a [C]gun
It shattered the silence as[C7] it left its [F]trace
Stains of red [C]crimson on a[G7] veil of white [C]lace
I ran from the church house as I threw down the[G7] gun
But stopped on the door step for there crossing the [C]lawn
My darling said she had [C7] decided to [F]wait
Death to a [C]stranger beneath a[G7] veil of white [C]lace
[F]Yes it's death to a [C]stranger beneath a[G7] veil of white [C]lace
I went there hoping that she'd change her [C]mind
There were beautiful roses in a[C7] bridal [F]bouquet
Where she stood at the[C] alter in a[G7] veil of white [C]lace
A stranger in silence reached out for her [G7]hand
And placed on her finger a gold weddin[C]g band
There was happiness written in the[C7] smile on his [F]face
But I couldn't [C]see hers beneath the[G7] veil of white [C]lace
I pitied that stranger for all he could [G7]see
Was their life together until eterni[C]ty
My heart filled with anger as I[C7] pictured the [F]face
Of a false hearted [C]quitter beneath a[G7] veil of white [C]lace
I reached in my pocket when the wedding was [G7]done
