Verse 1
D 
Bb 
D 
Bb 
me, is everybody there?
D 
Bb 
D 
Because if everybody's there,
Bb 
I want to thank you all
D 
Bb 
for coming to the wedding.
D 
I'd appreciate you going even more.
I mean, you must have lots
of better things to do
and not a word of it to Paul.
Remember, Paul,
Ddim 
you know the man I'm gonna marry.
But I'm not,
C# 
because I wouldn't ruin anyone
Ddim 
D 
as wonderful as he is.
But I thank you all for the
A 
gifts and the flowers.
Thank you all.
Asus4 
Now it's back     to the showers.
Don't tell Paul,
A 
D 
Bb 
F# 
D 
but I'm not getting married today.
Bm 
Bless this day.
A

F#

A tragedy of life has   been joined to life
Bm

The heart sinks down and feels dead

D 
This dreadful day

Bb 
Listen everybody, look,
D 
Bb 
I don't know what you're waiting for
D 
Bb 
A wedding, what's a wedding?
D 
Bb 
It's a prehistoric ritual
D 
Where everybody promises
fidelity forever
Which is maybe the most horrifying
word I ever heard
C# 
And which is followed by a honeymoon
where suddenly he'll realize
Ddim 
He saddled with another one to kill me,
which he should solicit
D 
Thanks a bunch,
A 
but I'm not getting married
Go have lunch,
Asus4 
A 
cause I'm not      getting married
Asus4 
You've been grand,
but I'm not getting married
Don't just stand there, I'm
not getting married
And don't tell Paul,
A 
but I'm not getting married
D 
Today
Go, can't you go?
G 
Why is nobody listening?
D 
G 
Goodbye, go and cry
D 
G 
At another person's wake
Asus4 
If you're quick    for a kick
You could pick up a christening,
but please, on my knees,
A 
there's a human life at stake!
D 
Listen, everybody,
I'm afraid you didn't hear
or do you want to see a crazy person
fall apart in front of you?
It isn't only Paul
who may be ruining his life,
you know, we'll both of us be
losing our identities.
Bb 
I telephoned my analyst about it
Ddim 
D 
and he said to see him Monday,
C# 
but by Monday
Ddim 
I'll be floating in the Hud    son
D 
with the other garbage.
Asus4 
I'm not well,
D 
Asus4 
so I'm not getting mar      ried.
You've been swell,
but I'm not getting married.
Clear the hall,
cause I'm not getting married.
Thank you all,
but I'm not getting married.
And don't tell Paul,
but I'm not getting married today.
G 
Can't you go?
Look, you know I adore you all,
but why watch me die like
Eliza on the ice?
Asus4 
Look, perhaps I'll     collapse in the abs
right before you all,
so take back the cake, burn the shoes,
A 
and boil the rice!
D 
Look, I didn't want to have to tell you,
Bb 
but I may be coming
D 
Bb 
down with hepatitis,
D 
Bb 
and I think I'm gonna faint,
D 
so if you want to see me faint,
I'll do it happily,
but wouldn't it be funnier to go
and watch a funeral?
Bb 
So thank you for the 27  dinner plates
Ddim 
D 
and 37     butter knives
Ddim 
D 
and 47     paperweights
Ddim 
D 
and 57     candle holders.
A 
I am not getting married.
Asus4 
A 
Thank you all,
Asus4 
but I'm not      getting married
A 
and don't tell Paul,
Asus4 
D 
but I'm not      getting married today
