[Opening]
[G]I am not the kind of [D]girl, who should be [Am]rudely barging in.
On a [C]white veil occasion, but [G]you are not the kind of [D]boy.
Who should be [Am]marrying the wrong [C]girl.
[verse 2]
[G]I sneak in and see your [D]friends, and her [Am]snotty little family.
All [C]dressed in pastel, and [G]she is yelling at a [D]bridesmaid.
Somewhere [Am]back inside a room, wearing a [C]gown shaped like a pastry.
[verse 3]
[Am]This [C]is [G]surely not, what you thought it would [D]be.
[Am]I [C]lose myself in a [D]daydream, where I stand and say.
[chorus]
[G]Don’t say “Yes”, [D]run away now, [Am]I’ll meet you when you’re out.
Of the [C]church at the back [G]door, don’t wait or [D]say a single vow.
[Am]You need to hear me out, and they [C]said “Speak Now!”
[verse 4]
[G] [D] [Am] [C]
[G]Fond gestures are ex[D]changed, and the [Am]organ starts to play a song.
That [C]sounds like a death march, and [G]I am hiding in the cur[D]tains.
It seems that [Am]I was uninvited, by your [C]lovely bride-to-be.
[verse 5]
[Am]She [C]floats down the aisle, like a [G]pageant [D]queen.
But [Am]I [C]know, you [G]wish it was me.
You [D]wish it was me, don’t you?
[chorus]
[G]Don’t say “Yes”, [D]run away now, [Am]I’ll meet you when you’re out.
Of the [C]church at the back [G]door, don’t wait or [D]say a single vow.
[Am]You need to hear me out, and they [C]said “Speak Now!”
[verse 6]
[G]Don’t say “Yes”, [D]run away now, [Am]I’ll meet you when you’re out.
Of the [C]church at the back [G]door, don’t wait or [D]say a single vow.
[Am]You time is running out, and they [C]said “Speak Now!”
[verse 7]
[D]Ohooho [Am]laaaah[C]hoh [G]
[D]Oooh (say a single [Am]vow) oooh[C]ooh
[verse 8]
[Em]I hear the preacher say [C]speak now, or forever [G]hold your [D]peace.
[Am]There’s a silence, there’s my last chance, [C]I stand up with shaky hands.
All [G]eyes on [D]me, [Am]horrified looks from every[C]one in the room.
But [D]I’m only looking at [D]you…
[verse 9]
[G]I am not the kind of [D]girl, who should be [Am]rudely barging in.
On a [C]white veil occasion, but [G]you are not the kind of [D]boy.
Who should be [Am]marrying the wrong [C]girl…
[chorus]
[G]Don’t say “Yes”, [D]run away now, [Am]I’ll meet you when you’re out.
Of the [C]church at the back [G]door, don’t wait or [D]say a single vow.
[Am]You need to hear me out, and they [C]said “Speak Now!”
[Closing]
And you say “Let’s [D]run away now”, I’ll [Am]meet you when I’m out
Of my [C]tux at the back [G]door, baby, I [D]didn’t say my vows
So [Am]glad you were around, when they [C]said “Speak Now” [G]
