Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][A][D][G][D]
[A][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]I pour
a glass [G]of hearty [D]wine
I set the tables [A]straight
I [D]wear my jacket [G]and my [D]tie
And at the door I [A]wait

[Verse 2]
[A]The guest[Bm] s arrive in [E]finery
An[G]d start to load [Gm]their plates
[D]But someone tell me [G]if you could
[D]Is this a wed[A]ding or a wake
[D]

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][A][D][G][D][A]
[D]

[Verse 3]
[D]I stand before you all [G]my friend[D]s
We hold our glasses [A]high
We [D]drink a toast [G]to life [D]and love
And all that surely [A]dies

[Verse 4]
[A]To [Bm]love revealed and [E]hopes concealed
[G]And who we need [Gm]forsake
[D]But tell me now am I [G]the [D]host
Of [A]a wedding or [D]a wake

[Interlude 2]
[D][G][D][A][D][G][D]
[A][D][Bm][E][G][Gm][D][G]
[D][A][D]

[Verse 5]
The [Bm]guests are gone, the [E]hall is bare
I'm [G]alone with my mis[Gm]takes
And the [D]answer still re[G]mains at large
[D]Was it a w[A]edding or a w[Bm]ake[E]
Oh, a [G]wedding [Gm]or a wake[D]
