Here Comes My Groom

[Verse 1]
Mama fixed my hair in the kitchen
Daddy’s boots are shined in the hall
Lace on my dress keeps tremblin’
Like my voice when I start to talk
[Chorus]
Here comes my groom, down the aisle to me
In that thrift-store suit, heart on his sleeve
All of our days, start in this room
I’ve waited my life
Here comes my groom
[Verse 2]
His crooked tie, that nervous smile
He trips on the rug, we both laugh
These are the things I’ll remember
More than the rings or the photographs
[Chorus]
Here comes my groom, down the aisle to me
In that thrift-store suit, heart on his sleeve
All of our days, start in this room
I’ve waited my life
Here comes my groom
[Bridge]
I don’t need a choir or a grand hotel
Just his shaking hands and that familiar smell
If this is forever, let it start right now (right now)
[Chorus]
Here comes my groom, down the aisle to me
In that thrift-store suit, heart on his sleeve
All of our days, start in this room
I’ll say “I do”
Here comes my groom

country, Minimalist country ballad with female vocals, brushed snare and soft upright bass under a single fingerpicked acoustic guitar. Intimate, close-mic verse, then chorus blooms gently with subtle pedal steel swells and a light three-part harmony. Keep tempo unhurried and tender, leaning on empty space and breath between phrases.
