My ^Cvery good friend, the ^Am7mail-man says That ^Dmit would make his ^G7burden less If ^Dmwe both had the ^A7same address And ^Am7he su^Dmggests that ^D7you should ^G7marry ^Cme.

[Chorus]

Then there's a ^G#maj7very friendly fellow ^Bb7who prints ^Fmall the latest real estate ^Cnews And ^G#maj7every day he sends me ^Bb7blueprints Of ^Fmcottages with ^G#country ^Gviews. ^G7

[Verse 3]

My ^Cvery good friends, the ^Am7neighbours say ^DmThey've been watching the ^G7things I do And ^Dmthey believe that ^A7I love you So ^Am7I su^Dmggest that ^D7you should ^G7marry ^Cme.
