[Vers 1:]

     C             C6              Cj7                     C6 
I've no wish to hurry you luv, but have you seen the time.    

     C              C6                       Dm7               G 
It's quarter to ten    and we're supposed to be there at nine.   

  Dm7               G       Dm7                  G 
I don't think the registrar will be very pleased   

     Dm7           G              C                C6 Cj7  C6 
when we show up an hour late like two frozen peas.    ----    

C                   C6             Cj7                 C6 
Both now facing for the first time presently and past.    

C7                                 F             
Something that begins with 'M' and ends in alas. 

Fm                              C                                  G   
More than not complete disaster even from the start. What could it be? 

            C   C6 Cj7  C6 
It's Matrimony.    ----

[Vers 2:]

  C                      C6          Cj7                  C6 
I know how you've dreamt about being walk down the aisle.    

    C               C6                       Dm7                  G 
But think of the money we'll save and you'll see it's worthwhile.   

   Dm7                   G             Dm7                   G 
It won't please our Mums and Dads, but they don't even know,   

  Dm7               G                   C                 C6 Cj7  C6 
besides if they did what's the bet they wouldn't even go.    ----    

C                  C6            Cj7                 C6 
You and me are all that matters, disregard the rest.    

      C7                          F                   
Trust your soon to be old man, he knows what is best. 

Fm                                      C                
Very shortly now there's going to be an answer from you, 

              G                 C   C6 Cj7 C 
then one from me. That's matrimony.        

[Bridge:]

[N.C.]          F                       C7             
      I'm truly grateful for the little things in life 

          F                C7             F                 C7       
that have made me so glad.    Every other hour that I spend with you 

           F              C7 Ab                    Eb7  
is not the least bit sad.    Quite the opposite in fact 

                   Fm                          C7 
and if you don't believe me, here's the proof.    

          Fm              G7     C   G7   C    G7   C    G7   C    
Ask me if I and I'll say: Aye, I do! ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----

C7                                F
