[Verse 1]
C
Two kids get married, same old thing
F
Folks congratulate you, church bells ring
C
Who’s got the ring? Who’s gonna pay the priest?
G
Get your name in the paper, picture or two at least

[Verse 2]
C
At the reception, all the old records play
F
“Where you gonna live? Are you gonna take her away?”
C
In a corner, my new nephew’s showin’ me his knife
G
“You swore that you’d love her for the rest of your life”

[Verse 3]
F
Went to kiss you at the altar, we bumped heads
C
Honeymoon night, we figured we best shake on it instead
F
Dressed kinda funny, laughin’, we hop in bed
C G
You can wear it on your feet, you can wear it on your head

[Verse 4]
C
Come mornin’, my new family’s sitting on the front porch swing
F
Smilin’ kinda funny, nobody says a thing
C
My new brother-in-law’s throwin’ a football, he tosses me a pass
G
We all sit down at the front stoop, everybody happy at last
