Chords with lyrics
The actual recording is a bit higher than this, but I bumped it down a bit to make it
easier to sing. So,
you won't be able to play this along with the recording as is. I've also trimmed most of
the instrumental
sections out, but they just use the same chord progressions as the rest of the song.
Marry Me - Emilie Autumn

FF C majorC Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Marry me, he said, through his rotten teeth, bad breath, and then
FF C majorC Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Marry me instead of that strapping young goatherd, but when
FF C majorC Bb majorBb C majorC
I was in his bed, and my father had sold me
FF C majorC Bb majorBb C majorC
I knew I hadn't any choice, hushed my voice, did what any girl would do and
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
When I'm beheaded at least I was wedded
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
And when I am buried at least I was married
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm A augmentedA
I'll hide my behavior with wine as my savior
FF C majorC FF C majorC FF
But, oh, what beautiful things I'll wear
C majorC FF C majorC FF
What beautiful dresses and hair
C majorC FF C majorC FF
I'm lucky to share his bed
C majorC FF C majorC FF
Especially since I'll soon be dead
FF C majorC Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Marry me, he said, god, he's ugly, but fortune is ours
FF C majorC Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Running in the gardens enjoying men, women, and flowers
FF C majorC Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Then I break a glass and I slit my own innermost thigh
FF C majorC Bb majorBb C majorC
So that I can pretend that I'm menstru...well, unavailable
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
My life is arranged but this union's deranged
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
So I'll fuck who I choose for I've nothing to lose
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm A augmentedA
And when master's displeased I'll be down on my knees again
FF C majorC FF C majorC FF
But, oh, what beautiful things I'll wear
C majorC FF C majorC FF
What beautiful dresses and hair
C majorC FF C majorC FF
I'm lucky to share his bed
C majorC FF C majorC FF
Especially since I'll soon be dead
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
When dining on peacock I know I won't swallow
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
Through balls, births, and bridge games I know what will follow
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
We're coupled together through hell, hurt, and hunger
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
Or at least until husband finds someone younger
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
Yes, fertilization is part of my station
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
I laugh as he drabs me in anticipation
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
Of sons who will run things when I'm under covers
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm C majorC
But whose children are they? Why, mine and my lover's!
FF C majorC FF C majorC FF
But, oh, what beautiful things I'll wear
C majorC FF C majorC FF
What beautiful dresses and hair
C majorC FF C majorC FF
I'm lucky to share his bed
C majorC FF C majorC FF
Especially since I'll soon be dead
C majorC FF C majorC FF
What beautiful things I'll wear
C majorC FF C majorC FF
What beautiful dresses and hair
C majorC FF C majorC FF
I'm lucky to share his bed
