(intro) G#5 C#5 D#5 G#5

G#5 C#5    D#5           G#5
I  heard church bells ring
  C#5      D#5    G#5
I heard a choir singing
C#5       D#5        G#5       F5
I saw my love walk down the aisle
       C#5     D#5           G#5
on her finger    he placed a ring

(N.C.)
Whoahhhh whoah..

C#5          D#5         G#5
I saw them     holding hands
        C#5             D#5         G5
She was standing there    with my man
C#5           D#5             G#5          F5
I heard them promise, "'Til death do us part"
     C#5         D#5         G#5
Each word Was a pain in my heart

(chorus)
C#5          D#5      G#5
All I could do was cry
All I could do was cry
C#5    D#5         G#5         F5
I was losing the man that I love
    C#5          D#5     G#5
and all I could do was cry

    C#5      D#5         G#5
And now the wedding is over
C#5         D#5                         G#5
Rice, rice has been thrown over their heads
C#5       D#5       G#5   F5
For them life has just begun
    C#5      D#5    G#5
but mine is at an end

Ohh oh... (chorus)
