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

Classic Country Music Lyrics home | Mel Tillis lyrics
There have been several artists record this country classic over the year with several versions of it, I just prefer the Mel Tillis does it. The song is easy enough for us less gifted pickers to do, all the verse are the same with simple chords. Just copy and paste Veil Of White Lace lyrics and chords and enjoy a good ol' country tune.
