G
[Verse 1]
Am C
With half an eye on history
C D G
And half an ounce of hope
Am C
Sold his soul in the vestry
C Am
Money for old rope
Am
Been this way a million times
C
But now his time is nigh
Am
He steps into the spotlight
C
He wants to say 'hi
G D
Hello, we're so glad you came
G C
You've never seen me before
Am C
He's so ambitious, he's so game
Am C
But yesterday he was dressed the same
F D
Then he was so much easier to ignore
[Chorus]
G C
Here Comes The Groom
Am D
Here Comes The Groom
G C
Here Comes The Groom
Am D
Here Comes The Groom
G Bm C
But the world's not an inn and there isn't any room for you
C G C D
But here he comes
C G C D
But here he comes
[Verse 2]
G
Am C
He married into money
C D G
Just to kiss and tell
Am C
He ripped the contract open
C Am
He's out of his shell
Am
He looks into a mirror
C
Practising his poise
Am
But it reflects so badly
C
The groom just gets annoyed
G D
He gasps, he forgets his lines
G C
He's never done that before
Am C
The scientists say he's doing fine
Am C
This fumbling frantic frankenstein
F D
Soon he's gonna do the dinosaur
[Chorus]
G C
Here Comes The Groom
Am D
Here Comes The Groom
G C
Here Comes The Groom
Am D
Here Comes The Groom
G Bm C
But the world's not an inn and there isn't any room for you
C G C D
But here he comes
C G C D
But here he comes
[Bridge]
F C G
His fingers are on the cliff edge
F C G
His head is going under
F
Is that applause?
Am
No that's just thunder....
Dm
Why do you keep saying I do?
D
What does the bride mean to you?
[BREAK]

[Verse 3]
Am C
Play me some Puccini
C D G
Make it heavy on the strings
Am C
Walk me to the altar
C Am
The choir can't even sing
Am
Right side for the photographs
C
Left side for the kids
Am
God made me do it
C
So that's what I did
G D
He coughs, loosens his bow-tie
G C
You've never seen him before
Am C
He kisses the bride, oh you know why
Am C
Love's one more thing you can buy
F D
He was unfaithful before he went outdoors
D
(and now he's in the graveyard)
[Chorus]
G C
Here Comes The Groom
Am D

Here Comes The Groom
Am D
Here Comes The Groom

But the world's not an inn and there isn't any room for you

But here he comes.
