Verse 1
D 
I knew the bride
when she used to rock 'n 'roll
I knew the bride
G 
D 
when she used to rock 'n 'roll
A 
Well, the bride looked a picture
D 
in her gown
A 
at her mama's war
Well, she was married herself
D 
nearly twenty -seven years before
A 
D 
A 
They have to change the style a little
D 
A 
but it'll look just fine
They stand up all night
D 
A 
D 
but I got it painted just in time
A 
Now on the arm of her daddy
D 
A 
she's walking down the aisle
I see her catch my eye
D 
and give me a secret smile
A 
Maybe it's too old -fashioned,
D 
A 
but we once were close friends
Oh, but the way that she
looks today,
Em 
D 
she never could have been
Bm 
G 
Well, I can see her now in
her tight blue jeans
D 
Pumpin' all her money
in a record machine
G 
Spinnin' like a top, you shoulda seen her go
D 
I knew the bride
when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride
A 
D 
Dm 
F 
D 
when she used to rock 'n 'roll
A 
Well, the bride ain't the only one
D 
A 
who give his little girl a test
And so he put down a grand
D 
on a cozy little lover's nest
A 
You could've called a reception
D 
A 
a non -qualified success
At the Fletcher Hotel
E 
A 
for a  hundred and fifty
D 
A 
D 
guests
We'll take a look at the bride
A 
when he smiles pleased and fine
Shaking hands all around
D 
A 
D 
with a glassy look in his eye
He got a real good job
A 
and he sure did tie his knies
But I remember the time when she never
D 
A 
D 
would have looked at him twice
G 
Well I can see her now
drinking with the boys
D 
Breaking their hearts like teamwork toys
G 
She used to do the pony,
used to do the stroll
D 
I knew the bride
when she used to rock and roll
A 
I knew the bride
D 
when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride
when she used to rock and roll
A 
Under the briar where she used
G 
D 
A 
D 
A 
D 
to rock and roll
A 
D 
G 
I see her now with her warm plan on
D 
Jumping up and down to her favorite song
G 
I still remember when she used to
wanna make a lot of noise
D 
I've been a man
with a strange kind of voice
G 
She used to wanna party,
she used to wanna go
D 
I knew the bride
when she used to rock 'n 'roll
I knew the bride
A 
D 
when she used to rock 'n 'roll
I knew the bride
when she used to rock 'n 'roll
D 
I  knew the bride
when she used to rock 'n 'roll
D 
I knew the bride
when she used to do the pony
I knew the bride
when she used to rock 'n 'roll
I knew the bride
when she used to wanna party
I knew the bride
