Intro

    


                     
Sunday Shoes, Cap and Gown
                     
The whole town gathered around 
                                             
Waited 18 years now its all comin down to this.
                                    
I scanned the crowd and it fills my soul
                          
My best friends all here in rows 
                                            
No turning back, Now its time to walk that line 

                    
This tassel is gonna turn 
                      
But when the moment passes by 
           
Well just walk away
             
Then slowly grow apart 

                      /   
But Im not gonna cry, no 
                        /  
Not one sad or happy tear 
                        /   
Ive waited my whole life 
                                  /  
Now Im gonna fly right outta here 
                                                 
Its a bittersweet goodbye,   but Im not gonna cry 

                       
Friday night, football games,
                         
First loves and first heartbreaks,
                           
It didnt matter who won or lost,
                  
Only how we played, 
                   
Memories as good as gold,
                        
Tearin' up those mountain roads,
                              
racin' out 53, to old georgetown, 

                     
sure we made a little trouble,
                      
but learned from every mistake, 
          
so theres no regret,
               
we've done the best we could 

                    /   
so im not gonna cry, no 
                         /  
not one sad or happy tear 
                         /  
ive waited my whole life 
                                 /  
now im gonna fly right outta here 
                                         
these have been the best years of my life 
                
so im not gonna cry 

                        
its been a long and winding journey
                             
and we've lost a few along the way 
                                        
still we've hung in there through the tribulations
                 
now its time to celebrate

                   /  
so im not gonna cry 
                         /  
not one sad or happy tear 
                        /  
ive waited my whole life 
                                /  
so im gonna fly right outta here
