Modern Marriage

E        E        E        E    F

[Verse 1]

E
  I promise not to rip you off
E
  And I promise not to sell you out
E
  I will never smoke all your stash if I happen to find it whilst tidying up
E                                     F
  Which, let's face it, isn't likely
                                           E
Well, we would always leave you at least a joint's worth, anyway
                                             E
And I will never eat the last bit of cereal, and then put the empty packet back, hoping you 
won't notice,
                 E
Or if I do, I'll pay for the next lot, I promise
                                      F
'Cos I know that really gets on your nerves
E
  And I will never sleep with any of your friends - well, not your best friends

[Chorus]

G   C
    I don't know just what I'm meant to do
G
I don't want to make it wrong for you
F
How can we escape what's happened to
Fm                             Bb
All those others who've gone before us two?
C
Baby, we have lived together
G
Now we'll do it all forever
F
Hold my hand, don't ever let it go
Fm                               Bb
Close your eyes, hold tight, and here we go

[Verse 2]

E                       E
    And how do we avoid being like all those other cheese-masters?
                                             E
Demonstrating the facilities of their new car and the trouser press
                    E                                       F
From hunter-gatherer to washer-dryer is a long, strange trip
E                                E                                           E
  And what if our kids turn into pudgy blobs, wearing Union Jack underpants, addicted to coffee 
whitener?
E                                                          E
Bloated caricatures of something vaguely recognisable as a human being - a human being that you 
once loved

[Chorus]

G   C
    I don't know just what I'm meant to do
G
I don't want to make it wrong for you
F
How can we escape what's happened to
Fm                             Bb
All those others who've gone before us two?
C
Baby, we have lived together
G
Now we'll do it all forever
F
Hold my hand, don't ever let it go
Fm                               Bb
Close your eyes, hold tight, and here we go

[Bridge]

C/E
So this is it:
C/E
We're walking down the aisle
C/E
The dawning of a new era
C/E
Is this the start of a new airbrushed Disney-life
C/E
Or some 36-part depressing-as-hell Northern drama to be repeated every night, for the rest of 
our lives?
C/E
Oh! and now I'm frightened
C/E
Oh yeah, I'm shitting Barratt houses here
C/E
Is this the right thing?
C/E
And then suddenly I'm turning to look at your face and I'm saying:
               C/G
"I do", "I do", "I do"

[Chorus]

C
I don't know just what I'm meant to do
G
I don't want to make it wrong for you
F
How can we escape what's happened to
Fm                             Bb
All those others who've gone before us two?
C
Baby, we have lived together
G
Now we'll do it all forever
F
Hold my hand, don't ever let it go
Fm                               Bb
Close your eyes, hold tight, and here we go
