Intro

C /Em /Am /G /

C          Cmaj7
Call up the preacher,
Dm             C
Save him the ride,
F     Am    C   Dm    G  G7
There'll be no wedding today.
Am          Dm
Here stands the bridegroom,
C                 F
Without any bride,
A      D        G     G7
To Love, Honor and Obey. 

C             Cmaj7
Call up the baker,
Dm             C
Cancel the cake,
F     Am       C    Dm    G  G7
There'll be no wedding today.
Am               Dm
Tell all the people,
C                    F
There's been a mistake,
Dm          G            C
You'll think of something to say.


F           G            C
I had a funny feeling, this morning,
    F         G       C
It woke me at the crack of dawn,
        F           G              Am
And then came her note without warning,
               D   D7      G     G7
Saying," Baby when you read this I'll be gone."


C           Cmaj7
Call up the florist,
Am              C
Give him the news.
F      Am   C    Dm   G  G7
Tell him, "Forget the bouquet."
Am             Dm
Somehow the flowers,
      C                F
Don't go with the blues,
Dm         G       C
There'll be no wedding today.

Key change to Eb


Eb              Gm
Call all our friends up,
Fm              Eb
Say that we're through,
Ab      Cm      Fm      Bb  Bb7
Tell them "I'm sorry to say,
Cm         Fm       Eb         Ab
Every-thing's over, it's sad but it's true,
F        Bb       Eb
There'll be no wedding today."
