Verse 1
(C major) I'm in a nice bit of trouble,
I (G major) con (C major) fess;
Somebody with (G major) me has had a
(C major) game. (A minor) (C major)
I should by now be a proud
and happy bride,
But I've (G major) still got to (D major) keep my single (G major) name.
I was proposed (D major) to by (B minor) Obadi (G major) ah Binks
(C major) In a very gentlemanly (D major) way;
Lent him all my money
So that (G major) he could buy a home,
And (A major) punctually at (D major) twelve
o'clock to- (G major) day-
Verse 2
(C major) Chorus:
There was I, (F major) waiting at the church,
(D major) Waiting at the church,
(G major) waiting at the (C major) church;
When I found he'd (G major) left me in the lurch.
(D major) Lor, how it did upset (G major) me! (A major) (D major)
(C major) All at once, he sent me (F major) round a note
Here's (D major) the very note,
(G major) this is what he wro (C major) te:
"Can't get away to (F major) marry you today, (D major)
(C major) My wife, won't (G major) let (C major) me!"
(F major) (D major) (C major) (G major)
(C major) (G major) (C major)
Lor, what a fuss Obadiah
made of me (G major)
(C major) When he used to take (G major) me in the park! (C major) (G major)
(C major) He used to squeeze me till I was black and (G major) blue,
When he kissed (D major) me he used to
leave a mark. (G major)
Each time he met me he
(D major) treated me to port,
(C major) Took me now and then to
see the (D major) play;
Understand me rightly,
When I say (G major) he treated me,
It (D major) wasn't him but (A major) me that (D major) used to (G major) pay.
