[Verse 1]
[C#dim]I'm in a [F#]nice [E]bi[Am]t of [G]tro[D]ubl[G]e,[D][G][E]
[D]confess.
[G]Somebody with [D]me has had a [G]game.
I should by now be a proud
and happy bride,
[Gm]but [D]I've still got to [A]keep me [D]single name.
I was proposed to by Obadiah Binks
in [G]a very g[E]entlemanly w[D]ay.
Oh, he was an arse, gent, he really was
[A]I lent him all me money
so that [D]he [Bb]could buy the [D]home
And [E]punctually at [A]twelve o
'clock [D]today[G][D]
[G]There was I, [Am]waiting at the church,
[A]waiting at the church,
wait[D]ing at the church
[G]When I found he lef[D]t me in the lurch,
[A]lo, how it did upset [D]me[Am]
[G]All at once he [D]sent me [Am]round a note,
well [A]here's the very note,
and [D]this is what he wrote
I [G]can't get away to [D]marry [A]you [Am]today,
[G]my wife won't let me
[C#dim][C#m][F#][E][Am][D]
[E]Oh [A]you che[D]eky dev[G]il[D][G][D]
[G]Oh, what a fuss Oba[D]diah made of me
When [G]he used [D]to take me in the [G]park
[D]You [G]know, he used to squeeze me
till I was black and blue
[Gm]When he [D]kissed me,
he [A]used to leave a [D]mark
Each time he met me, he treated me to wine
He [G]took me now and [E]then to see the play
[A]Oh, it [D]was lovely and ever so posh
[A]Well, understand me rightly
when I [G]say he [D]treated me
He was[E]n't him, but [A]neither used to [D]pay
[G]There was I w[D]ait[G]ing at [D]the church,
[Am]waiting at t[A]he churc[D]h,
waiting at the church
[G]When I found [D]he left me in the lurch,
[A]oh how he did [D]upset me
[G]All at once he [D]sent me
[Am]round a note,
[A]here's the very note
And [D]this is what he wrote,
I [G]can't get a wife to [A]marry you to die
[G]My wife [D]won't let me
[G][G][D]
