Intro: G G G G G G D D I am not the kind of girl Am Am C C Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion G G D D But you are not the kind of boy Am Am C Who should be marrying the wrong girl G D Am I sneak in and see your friends, and her snotty little family C All dressed in pastel G D Am And she is yelling at a bridesmaid, somewhere back inside a room C Wearing a gown shaped like a pastry
Am C G D This is surely not what you thought it would be Am C D I lose myself in a daydream where I stand and say G D Don’t say yes, run away now Am C G I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the backdoor D Don’t wait or say a single vow Am C You need to hear me out and they said speak now G D Am C G D Fun gestures are exchanged Am C And the organ starts to play a song that sounds like a death march G D And I am hiding in the curtains Am C It seems that I was uninvited by your lovely bride-to-be Am C G D She floats down the aisle like a pageant queen Am C D D But I know you wish it was me, you wish it was me Don’t you? G D Don’t say yes, run away now Am C G I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the backdoor D Don’t wait or say a single vow Am C You need to hear me out and they said speak now G D Don’t say yes, run away now Am C G I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the backdoor D Don’t wait or say a single vow Am C Your time is running out and they said speak now (G D Am C)x2 Am C G D I hear the preacher say speak now or forever hold your peace Am There’s the silence, there’s my last chance C D I stand up with shaking hands, all eyes on me Am Am C C Horrified looks from everyone in the room D D D But I’m only looking at you G G D D I am not the kind of girl Am Am C C Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion G G D D But you are not the kind of boy Am Am C Who should be marrying the wrong girl G D Don’t say yes, run away now Am C G I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the backdoor D Don’t wait or say a single vow Am C You need to hear me out and they said speak now G D And you say lets run away now Am C G I’ll meet when I’m out of my tux at the backdoor D Am Baby I didn’t say my vows, so glad you were around C G When they said "Speak now"
