Version 1 
            [Intro]
D    A    G    x2


[Verse 1]
G         D             Dmaj7      Em           G
Here at a truck stop in New Mexico just before dawn
           D                  Dmaj7
Somebody's grandma behind the wheel of a big rig
Em                  G
Pulling in with her headlights on
G                           D
We smoke a cigarette as the sunrise runs riot
F#            G
Someone's got to break the quiet
       D
And she says, "What are you doing here anyway?"
      Asus4                             A
And I smile and say, "You'd never guess"
             Em
She holds it up for me by its skinny white shoulder straps


[Chorus]
      G  A                   D        A     G
While I, I take a picture of my dress
                    D        A     G
I take a picture of my dress


[Verse 2]
           D     Dmaj7 Em                         G
I'm in the bathroom of a Dallas Texas Burger King
           D               Dmaj7              Em
Mr. Steven Tyler is on the overhead speakers
                               G
He doesn't want to miss a thing
                        G
Out there at the counter
         D                          F#
Blending in with the lunchtime crowd
              G
Trying not to laugh out loud
      D
I eat half my crispy chicken club
      Asus4                        A
I get extra mayonnaise, it's a mess
           Em
I take the other half out to the parking lot with me


[Chorus]
        G    A                      D       A     G
Pop the trunk and take a picture of my dress
                    D       A     G
I take a picture of my dress


[Bridge]
               F#                       Em
It still looks good, I only wore it once
E              G                            A
Nine years ago, nine years and seven months


[Verse 3]
            D          Dmaj7
It may be a long while before the highway
Em                             G
Decides to finally set me free
                     D              Dmaj7
I'm going to have to chase down the remnants
Em                                         G
Of something special that you stole from me
G                                     D                          F#
It may be hiding in the sunset, or in distant corners of the dawn
G                  Gm
Or maybe it's gone
      D
But I say some prayers above the engine
        Asus4                        A
I bless everything there is to bless
           Em
Run out of gas in the middle of nowhere anyway
                   G        A
Stand there by the roadside smiling


[Chorus]
                      D       A     G
And take a picture of my dress
                    D       A      G
I take a picture of my dress
                    D       A      G
I take a picture of my dress
                    D       A      G
I take a picture of my dress
