#1.
A                            C A
I got your wedding invitation.
A                            E G E
I'm surprised you thought of me.
      Bm                 E      G E
But I don't believe your wedding,
E                        A  D A
is just where I ought to be.

#2.
A                                Am A
For you put your arms around her,
A                      E  G E
kiss her lips so tenderly.
         Bm               E       G E
As she's standing there beside you,
E           Dbm              A   D A
that's just where I ought to be.


CHORUS:
A                  D
Like a fool I introduced you.
                      A
I said, baby, meet my friend.
                      D
Never thought I could lose you.
                         E
But I lost you there and then.


#3.
           A                        C A
I took the diamond ring you gave me.
A                       E   G E
Threw it way out in the sea.
      Bm           E       G E
And I had an awful feeling..
E                            A  D A
that's just where I ought to be.



BRIDGE:
Gbm   A                    C A
Da-da-da-da-da-da-dee-dum..
A                 E   G E
Da-da-da-da-da-da-dum..
E                         G E
Da-da-da-da-da-da-dee-dum..
E                   A   D A
Da-da-dee-da-dee-da-dum..



CHORUS:
A                  D
Like a fool I introduced you.
                      A
I said, baby, meet my friend.
                      D
Never thought I could lose you.
                         E
But I lost you there and then.


#4.
           A                        C A
I took the diamond ring you gave me.
A                       E   G E
Threw it way out in the sea.
      Bm           E       G E
And I had an awful feeling..
E                            A  D A
that's just where I ought to be.
