A
Daddy's waitin' with the bride
As she helps him with his tie she 
 D
sees a tear
              A          D
He says it's hot in here
A
He hugs his little girl and asks
                              D
How did you grow up so fast, God I 
wish
                     A
Your momma could be here for this
E
Everybody stands and smiles
As she comes walking down the aisle 
        D
in her momma's gown
           A
And Daddy breaks on down
E
Gran and Gramps in the second row
Stood right there fifty years ago 
     D
and said their vows
              E
I guess it's workin' out


CHORUS

E
A little table full of gifts
Catering has covered dish and the 
 D
wedding band
            A
Well that's on her hand
E
Tommy's teasing Loraline

Pushed her down and made her cry
     D                   E
And neither one knows a day will 
come


Chorus:
          A                     
When the angels gather, and the 
C#m
music plays
         D                       
Let the preacher get to preachin' 
         E
all the do you takes
A  F#m  D        E
Lo------ve is a beautiful thing
           A                     
Throw the rice in the air let the 
  C#m
church bells ring
         D                      
Tie the cans to the back of that
