Golden Blunders

[First Part]

F      C                Dm             C       Bb
Golden blunders come in pairs, they're very unaware
          F                    Gm   Eb
What they know is what they've seen
F  C             Dm       C                  Bb
Education wasn't fun, but now that school is done
       F                 Gm           C
Higher learning's just begun, hey hey hey

[Chorus]

Bb           F              C         F
You're gonna watch what you say for a long time
Bb           F          C        F
You're gonna suffer the guilt forever
Bb           F          C          F
You're gonna get in the way at the wrong time
Bb           F                  C                 F
You're gonna mess up things you thought you would never

[Second Part]

F    C                   Dm        C                Bb
Disappointment breeds contempt, it makes you feel inept
      F                   Gm      Eb
Never thought you'd feel alone at home
F       C            Dm               C               Bb
His and hers forever more, throw your freedom out the door
           F                  Gm           C
Before you find out what it's for, hey hey hey

[Chorus]

Bb           F              C         F
You're gonna watch what you say for a long time

You're gonna suffer the guilt forever
Bb           F          C          F
You're gonna get in the way at the wrong time
Bb           F                  C                 F
You're gonna mess up things you thought you would never

[Bridge]

D                        G
Four weeks seemed like a long time then
    D                     G
But nine months is longer now
    D                 G
But even if you never speak again
       D                F          E7  Eb  D
You've already made the wedding vow

[Chorus]

Honeymoons will never start, bonds will blow apart
        F                 Gm    Eb
Just as fast as they were made
F       C              Dm    C                 Bb
Men and women please beware, don't pretend you care
        F                    Gm           C
Nothing lasts when nothing's there, ah ha ha
