Can't Believe I'm the first one to post the chords!
Capo 2
Intro: F
F C
I am not the kind of girl
Em G
who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion.
F C
But you are not the kind of boy
Em G
who should be marrying the wrong girl.
F C
I sneak in and see your friends,
Em
and her snotty little family
G
all dressed in pastel.
F C
And she is yelling at a bridesmaid
Em
somewhere back inside her room
G
wearing a gown shaped like a pastry.
F C Em G
This is surely not what you thought it would be.
F C Em
I lose myself in a daydream.
G
Where I stand and say.
F C
Don't say yes, run away now
Em G
I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back door.
F C
Don't wait, or say a single vow
Em
You need to hear me out
G
and they said speak now.
Reapeat F chord.
F C
Fond gestures are exchanged
Em G
and the organ starts to play a song that sounds like a death march.
F C
and I am hiding in the curtains
Em
It seems that I was uninvited by your lovely
G
bride to be.
F C Em G
She floats down the aisle like a pageant queen.
F C Em
I know you wish it was me
G
you wish it was me
don't you?

Speak Now.
