G G7 C

[Verse 1]
C                          G                 C
How I bragged you were the best catch in the town
      G7                           C
And today our wedding day I'd be a queen
                        C7             F
But good cow the mighty now has fallen down
        G                         C
For you never did appear upon the scene

[Chorus]
      F                          C
The decline and fall of me came about so suddenly
       G              G7                C
That I had no time to brace against the shock
        F                              C
Tho the warning signs were there I was walking round on air
      G          G7               C
So, I never even heard misfortune knock

[Verse 2]
                          G7              C
Guess that I was much too proud of loving you
       G                                C
With a foolish pride that goes before a fall
                       C7            F
So now at the ripe old age of twenty-two
      G                         C
I'm a has been who never was at all

[Chorus]
      F                          C
The decline and fall of me came about so suddenly
       G              G7                C
That I had no time to brace against the shock
        F                              C
Tho the warning signs were there I was walking round on air
      G          G7               C
So, I never even heard misfortune knock
      G          G7               C
No, I never even heard misfortune knock
