All lined up in a wedding group 
                     D
'ere we are for a photograph
We're all dressed up in a morning

suit all trying not to laugh
          A             D         
Since the early caveman in his fur
        A              D
 took a trip to Gretna Green
        A                D        
There's always been a photographer

 to record the 'appy scene

G                              
The same thing 'appened long ago 
                      D
when man was in his prime
And what went on we only know from 
                         G
the snaps he took at the time
     A                     D      
When Adam and Eve in their 
         A            D
birthday suit decided to get wed
   A                 D            
As Adam was about to taste the 
       A                   D
fruit the man with the cam'ra said
