Connie Francis – The Wedding Cake (Guitar)

D
Don't be troubled 'bout me cause I'm tired

D
From workin' 'round the house

     Em
When day is done

                A7
Don't think you failed me cause you can't afford

                               D
That dishwasher to make my life more fun

D
You know, the measure of a man is

                        D7       G      Gm
Much more than just the money he can make

          D                            Em
And every woman knows a lot of joy and tears

     A7               D
Come with the wedding cake

D
The wedding cake is not all icing

                                    Em
And love and tender whispers in the dark

    A7
One slice is concern for all your dreams prayed

                    D
They won't come true and break your heart

D
Another slice is feedin' kids and wipin' noses

                G                            Gm
Cryin' when the doorbell rings and there are roses

      D                             Em
Every woman knows a lot of give and take

      A7               D    B7  E
Comes with the wedding cake

E
It's facin' shadows of the future

E
Prayin' they will fall away as we walk toward them

              F#m
Searchin' for the sun

         B7
And it's long and anxious hours with the wolf at the door

                                      E
Hugs and kisses when, at last, we see the dawn

E
So when the hands of time trace tellin' lines upon our face

                  A               Am
And lace our hair with strands of gray

             E
We laugh and say for all who will partake

F#m          B7               E    F#m B
It all comes with the wedding cake

E
Yes, for all who will partake

F#m          B7               E    F#m B
It all comes with the wedding cake

E
Yes, for all who will partake

F#m          B7               E
It all comes with the wedding cake
