Every Other Weekend Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Eve[E]ry [A]other Friday
It's [E]toys, and clothes, and backpacks
Is [F#m]everybody [E]in? Okay, let's [D]go see Dad
[A]Same time in the same spot
Corner [E]of the same old parking lot
[F#m]Half the hugs and k[E]isses,
they are [D]al ways sad

[Verse 2]
We trade [Bm]a couple words
And [A]looks and [D]kids [Esus4]again
Every other [A]weekend

[Verse 3]
[D]Every other weekend,
[A]very few exceptions
[Bm]I pick up [F#m]the love we made
[G]in both my arms
It's [D]movies on the sofa
Grilled [A]cheese and cut the crust off
But that's [Bm]not the way Mom m[F#m]akes it
[A]Daddy [G]breaks my heart

[Verse 4]
I miss [Em]everything
I used to have with [A]her [Asus4]again
[D]Every other [A]weekend

[Verse 5]
[Bm]I can't tell her I love [A]her
(I can't tell him I love him)
'Cause there's [G]too many questions
And [D]ears in [A]the car

[Verse 6]
So [Bm]I don't tell him I miss him[A]
(I don't tell her I [G]need her)
She's over me, [D]that's where we [A]are
So we're as [Em]close as we
[D]might ever [G]be again
[Asus4]Every other wee[D]kend[E]

[Verse 7]
[A]Every other Saturday,
[E]first thing in the morning
I turn [F#m]the TV on to make [E]the quiet [D]go away
I [A]know why, but I don't know
[E]Whatever let this happen
[F#m]Fallin' for [E]forever was [D]a big mistake

[Verse 8]
There's so much [Bm]not to do
[A]And all day not to [D]do [Esus4]with him
[E]Every other [A]weekend

[Verse 9]
[D]Every other Sunday,
I [A]empty out my back- seat
While my [Bm]children hug [A]their mother
in the park[G]ing lot
We don't [D]touch, we don't talk much
Maybe [A]goodbye to each other
As she [Bm]drives away with
[A]every piece [G]of heart I got

[Verse 10]
I recog[Em]nize myself,
I did the right [Asus4]thing
Every other [D]weekend[A]

[Verse 11]
[Bm]I can't tell her I love [A]her
(I can't tell him I love him)
'Cause there's [G]too many questions
And [D]ears in the [A]car

[Verse 12]
So [Bm]I don't tell him I miss him[A]
(I don't tell her I [G]need her)
She's over me, [D]that's where we [A]are
We're [Em]as close as [D]we might
ever be [G]again
[Asus4]Every other wee[D]kend

[Verse 13]
Yeah, [Em]for 15 minutes
[D]We're family[G] again
God, [Em]I wish that he [D]was still
with me [G]again[Asus4]
[D]Every other weekend
[G][A]
