Dearly Beloved

E B7 E

[Verse 1]
E
 Good morning, dearly beloved, we are gathered here today
                                   A
 To watch two people we know make a big mistake
        B7
 They'll stand up at the alter, and solemnly swear I do
                                                     E
 They'll be together forever, 'til they find somebody new


[Chorus 1]
    A                                                    E
 Her daddy's in the front row, muttering oh no here we go again
     A
 They had a couple dates, now she's three months late
         B7
 And it's twenty buck a plate I spent, oh:


[Verse 2]
     E
 Good morning, dearly beloved, I'd like to welcome ya'll
                                   A
 To see the side-effects of sex and alcohol
       B7
 Please bow your heads and join me, in a prayer for these two
                                                    E     A B7 E
 Who'll be together forever, 'til they find somebody new


[Chorus 2]
    A
 The bride is a flirt and the groom is worse
                         E            A
 As he's putting the ring on her, he's checking out the bridesmaids,
                            B7
 Thinking that he might take, the maid of honor's honor, oh:


[Verse 3]
E
 Welcome, dearly beloved, we are here this afternoon
                                           A
 To throw rice as these two, drive down the road to ruin
     B7
 With cans tied to the bumper, and a dragging muffler too
                                                     E
 They'll be together forever, ‘til they find somebody new

   B7
 So raise your glass and join me, here's to the bride and groom
                                                     E        B7 E
 They'll be together forever, 'til they find somebody new
