Key:
G [Verse]
G Well, my heart skipped a beat when you walked into the room
G And in five seconds I was thinking bride and groom
D I was thinking bride and groom, thinking man and wife
D Never fell in love so fast in all of my life [Verse]
G I know you’ll like my friends and you’ve got to meet my parents
G My dad is pretty funny and my mom looks like betty white
D I’ve got to have another drink to figure out
D A way to introduce myself to you tonight [Verse]
G I’m lousy on the first night, better by the third
Continues after the ad
G I was raised catholic, in case you hadn’t heard
D But I ain’t the type of man who lives on dreams and wishes
D Or walks around the house breaking bread and blessing fishes [Verse]
G If I sent a dozen roses just out of habit
G Would you press those flowers in a copy of Babbitt?
D I need another drink, I need a cigarette
D I ain’t giving up, I’m gonna get you yet [Verse]
G I’ll give you the rights to my ten best songs
G If you want to talk, I can talk till dawn
D Right there I need a word that rhymes with urn
D I guess your name is the first thing I ought to learn [Verse]
G I hope you’re a democrat, I hope you like the Red Sox
G Hope you like bourbon with a splash of water on the rocks
D Bourbon with a splash is the only drink I make
D But baby, I can learn, there’s a course I can take [Verse]
G You might as well give up, I’m gonna make my move
G We can honeymoon in Paris, hang out at the Louvre
D We can winter in the city, summer up in Maine
D And all of this will happen, just as soon as I learn your name
