[Verse 1]
[Abdim]I've[C#][F#m][Bm][F#m][D][C#]
been [Gb]married and [Cb]married,
and [E]often [C#m]I've sighed.
[C#]I'm [F#]never a [Bm]bridesmaid[E],
[A]I'm always the [Db]bride.
I [Gb]never divorced [Cb]them,
[E]I hadn't the heart.
[Db]Yet re m[Bbm]ember these[Gb]
sweet [A]words,
[Ab]Till death do us [Db]part.
I mar[Gb]ried many men, a [Ebm]ton of them,
Because [Gb]I was untr[Db]ue
[Ebm]to non[Gb]e of them,
Because [Abm]I bumped
[Db]off every [Gb]one of them,
[Bbaug]To keep m[Abm]y love al[Db]ive.[Gb]
[Db]Sir [Gb]Paul was frail,
he looked a [Ebm]wreck to me
At [Gb]night he was a [Db]horse's [Gb]neck to me
So [Abm]I performed [Db]an appendec[Gb]tomy
To [Cb]keep [Abm]my lov[Db]e ali[F#]ve
Sir [B]Thomas [Bm]had insom[A]nia
He [Bm]couldn't sleep [E]at [A]night
I bought [C#]a little arse[F#]nic
He's sleep[G#m]ing now, all [C#]right
[E#]Sir [C#]Phili[F#]p played the harp,
I [D#m]cussed the thing
I [F#]crowned him with [C#]his harp
[D#m]to bust the[F#] thing
And [G#m]now he plays [C#]where harps
are [F#]just the thing
To [B]keep my [C#]love [F#]alive
[A#aug]To keep m[B]y love a[E]live[C#][Gb][G][C][Eb]
[D]I thought Sir[G] George had possibilities,
[Em]But his [G]flirtations made me il[Em]l at eas[G]e,
And [Am]when I'm ill [D]at ease, I [G]kill at ease,
To [C]keep my [D]love [G]alive.
Sir Charles came from a sanatori[Em]um,
And [G]yelled for drinks in my [Em]empori[G]um.
I [Am]mixed one drink, [D]he's in me[G]moriam
To [C]keep my [D]love [G]alive
Sir [Cm]Francis [F]was [Bb]a singing bird,
a [Cm]nightingale
[F]That's [Bb]why I t[D]ossed him off my b[G]alcony
To see [Am]if he could [D]fly[F#]
[D]Sir [G]Athelstain indulged in [Em]fratricide
He [G]killed his dad [D]and that w[Em]as p[G]atricide
One [Am]night I stabbed [D]him by
my [G]matricide
[Baug]To keep [C]my love [D]aliv[B]e[Baug]
[Ebaug]To keep my l[C]ove aliv[F]e[Gm]
[Em]
