Am
Oh, well imagine, as I'm pacing
the pews in a church corridor, and I
D/F#
can't help but to hear, no
                     F
I can't help but to hear an exchanging of words:

"What a beautiful wedding!
What a beautiful wedding!”,
says a bridesmaid to a waiter
"And yes, but what a shame, what a shame
The poor groom's bride is a whore"

[Chorus:
Am                  F                       Dm
I chime in with a "Haven't you people ever heard
              G
of closing a goddamn door?!"
Am             F                    Dm
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
                           G
with a sense of poise and rationality.
Am                  F                       Dm
I chime in with a "Haven't you people ever heard
              G
of closing a goddamn door?!"
Am             F                    Dm
No, it's much better to face these kinds of
things with a sense of...

Oh, well, in fact
Well, I'll look at it this way
I mean, technically our marriage is saved
Well, this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne
Oh! Well, in fact
Well, I'll look at it this way
I mean, technically our marriage is saved
Well, this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne
Pour the champagne

Chorus

Poise and rationality
