When The Kids Get Married Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
When [D]the kids get [E]married
I'm [D]gonna [E]spend each day in bed
Chocolates in my pocket
[D]A pillow under h[E]ead
I'm gonna read just what I [A]please
Even finish War and [E]Peace
I [C#]wish they'd [C#m]marry [B]soon[E]
Agnes, [D]would you hand me
my collected Tolstoy, please?
Ah, thank you.
Now if you'll just excuse me
for a couple of years.
Quite all right, dear.
I have plans of my own.
When the kids get married
[E]I'm gonna teach myself [A]to paint
Noth[D]in' very [Bm]fancy,
[E]somethin' kinda quaint
[A]I'm [D]gonna paint the way we live,
call it [G]early [C]primitive
I [D]wish [B]they'd [E]marry [A]soon[D]
When the kids get married,
[E]I'm gonna play the [A]saxophone
Prac[D]tice till I [Bm]master [E]every golden [A]tone
Then [D]when I've got my sax in hand,
[G]I may form [C]a little band
I [A]wish [B]they'd [E]marry [A]soon[D]
When the kids get married,
[E]I'm gonna try the [A]violin
Something [D]nice and [Bm]simple,
[E]that's how I'll begin
[A]Then [D]when I finish Clair de Lune,
[G]I'll attack an[C]other dude
I [D]wish [B]they'd [E]marry [A]soon[D][A][D]
[E]Agnes, here's your fiddle
And Michael, here's your sax
Thank you I've been waiting thirty years [B]for this[E]
[C#m][F#][C#m][E][C#m][F#][B]
[E][A][D][E][C#m][B][E]
[A]When [D]the kids get [Bm]married,
[E]we're gonna play for [A]one and all.
[D]Maybe [Bm]give presidials at
[E]Philharmonic [A]Hall.
[D]We're gonna be a double bill,
the [G]oldest team in [C]vaudeville,
if [D]they [B]don't [Bm]marry [A]soon.[F#m][B]
[Bm]I'm [A]gonna spend a year in bed.
I'm gonna dye my hair bright [D]red.
And I'm gonna learn to [A]shoot some golf.
I'm gonna [D]take my [A]girdle off.
Play the sax.
Claire de Lune, take a second honeymoon,
[Em]I wish the[A]y'd marry so[Bb]on.[A]
[D]Oh, Michael.
