and there can be no wedding without a groom 
     G              D             Cmaj9 
You said he's gone away to make a place for you and Him 
       G               D                  Cmaj9      
Oh you know He's gonna come back, but you just don't know when

As some understand slowness to be 
        G                D              Cmaj9

Dear friend, people joke, they laugh and they make fun 
          G            D         Cmaj9 
When you tell 'em all about the groom who's gonna come 
G                D                         Cmaj9

Do you wonder if you're ever gonna wear that wedding dress
