It was a $1000 wedding supposed to be held the other day

And with all the invitations sent, the young bride went away
D MajorD A augmentedA
When the groom saw people passing notes
BB D/AD/A G+G E MajorE
Not unusual, he might say
D MajorD G+G
But where are the flowers for my baby
D MajorD G+G
I'd even like to see her mean old mama
D MajorD A augmentedA B minorBm D MajorD G+G D MajorD G+G
And why ain't there a funeral, if you're gonna act that way
E MajorE A augmentedA

I hate to tell you how he acted when the news arrived
A augmentedA E MajorE G+G
He took some friends out drinking, and it's lucky they survived
D MajorD A augmentedA B minorBm D/AD/A E MajorE
Well, he told them everything there was to tell there along the way
D MajorD G+G
And he felt so bad when he saw the traces
D MajorD G+G
Of old lies still on their faces
D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm D/AD/A
So why don't someone here just spike his drink

Why don't you do him in some old way

Supposed to be a funeral

It's been a bad, bad day

The Reverend Dr. William Grace was talking to the crowd

All about the sweet child's holy face and the saints who sung out loud
D MajorD A augmentedA
And he swore the fiercest beasts
B minorBm D/AD/A G+G E MajorE
Could all be put to sleep the same silly way
D MajorD G+G
And where are the flowers for the girl
D MajorD G+G
She only knew she loved the world
D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm D/AD/A G+G D MajorD C majorC G+G
And why ain't there one lonely horn and one sad note to play
D MajorD C majorC G+G
Supposed to be a funeral

It's been a bad, bad day
D MajorD C majorC G+G
Supposed to be a funeral
