Intro:  G   G

G 	  	       D
I am not the kind of girl
 	        Am 	  	        C
Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
     G  	  	  	      D
But you are not the kind of boy
 	        Am 	              C
Who should be marrying the wrong girl
G 	  	            D
I sneak in and see your friends
 	  Am 	  	            C
And her snotty little family all dressed in pastel
     G                    D
And she is yelling at a bridesmaid
 	    Am 	  	  	          C
Somewhere back inside a room, 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

--Chorus

G 	            D
   Don't say yes, run away now
      Am 	  	                C
I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back door
G                  D
   Don't wait, or say a single vow
     Am 	  	  	           C 	  	      G 	     D 	   Am 	   C
You need to hear me out and they said, "speak now"


 G 	              D
Fun gestures are exchanged
        Am 	  	                   C
And the organ starts a 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
But I------ know---- you wish it was me, you wish it was me, don'tcha

--Chorus

G                  D
   Don't say yes, run away now
      Am                               C
I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back door
G                  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
I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back door
G                  D
   Don't wait, or say a single vow
        Am                            C
You're time is running out, and they said, "speak now"

--Solo: 	  G     D     Am     C        G     D      Am      C
             Oooooh  la la-aa            Ooooooh  oooooh

--Bridge

Am
 I hear the preacher say
  C                    G         D
Speak now, or forever hold your peace
 Am
There's a silence, there's my last chance
C                                 D
I stand up with shaky hands, all eyes on me
 Am                   C
Horrified looks from everyone in the room
     D                   D5
But I'm only looking at you

G                   D
I am not the kinda girl
               Am                      C
Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
     G                     D
But you are not the kinda boy
               Am                    C
Who should be marrying the wrong girl  (haha)

--Chorus
G                      D
   So, don't say yes, run away now
      Am                               C
I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back door
G                  D
   Don't wait, or say a single vow
     Am                       C
You need to hear me out, and said, "speak now"
G                       D
   And you say, "let's run away now
      Am                          C
I'll meet you when I'm out of my tux at the back door
G           D
   Baby, I didn't say my vows
    Am                              C                  G (let ring)
So glad you were around, when they said, 'speak now'"
