         Dm7/F
Well she looked a peach in the dress she made
             Em7/G
when she was still her mama's little girl.
             Dm7/F
And when she walked down the aisle
                        Em7/G
everybody smiled at her innocence and curls.
               Dm7
And when the preacher said is there anyone here
       Am                       A#
got a reason why they shouldn't wed?

                           F
I should have stuck up my hand.
               C  F/D C  G
I should have got up to stand.
      C              F         Gsus4 G
And this is what I should have said:

Chorus:
                        C  C/E F C/E F Fsus4 F G
I wanna kiss the bride yeah!
                        C  C/E F C/E F Fsus4 F G
I wanna kiss the bride yeah!
        A       Dm7             Dm7   C     G/B
Long before she met him she was mine, mine, mine.
C/E           F C/F F               C/G  G C/G G
Don't say "I do".    Say "bye, bye, bye"
           C/G  G          C  C/E F C/E F Fsus4 F G
And let me kiss the bride yeah!

Underneath her veil, I could see a tear
Tricklin' down her pretty face
And when he slipped on the ring, I knew everything
Would never be the same again
But if the groom woulda known, he'd have had a fit
About his wife and the things we did

And what I planned to say
Yeah, on her weddin' day
Well, I thought it, but I kept it hid

Chorus - x2

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah!
I wanna kiss the bride, yeah!
I wanna kiss the bride, yeah!
