[Verse 1]
[G]Eve[A]ry [D]tim[G]e I hear that
march from Lohen[C]grin
[F]I am always o[Baug]n the out
[G]side [Eb]lookin' in
[G]Maybe, that is [A]why I [Edim]see
[D]the funny [Fdim]side[Bb]
[D]When I see some[G]body's [A]brother
[D]take a [E]bride[Esus4]
[D]Weddings make a

[Verse 2]
[E]lot of
people [Am]sad[Ebdim]
But [Em]if you're not th[A]e one,
[Em]they're [A]not [G]so bad
[D]

[Verse 3]
Another [G]bride, [Abdim]another June
[Am]Anot[D]her sunny ho[G]ney mo[Dm]on[G][C][D]
[F]Another sea[Baug]son, ano[B]the[E]r reason[A]
[D]For mak[G]in' who[Cm]opee[D]

[Verse 4]
A lot [G]of shoes, [Abdim]a lot of rice[Am]

Picture a little love [C]nest, [G]I got you
[Ebdim]Down where the roses cling,[G]
[D]it'[A]s very roman[Cm]tic
[Bdim]Picture that [E]same sweet love nest
Think, [Cm]what a year can [B]bring,
[E]I'm with you[Ebdim][D]

[Verse 6]
[G]He's washing [G#dim]dishes and ba[Am]by cl[D]othes,

[D]For makin' who[G]opee[C]
[C#dim]

[Verse 7]
[D][Eb]
Another [Ab]year, what, or maybe [Eb]less
