[Intro] | A7 | A7 | D | A7 | [Verse 1]
  D            A               D
I have the invitation that you sent me

                 A7                  D     D7
You wanted me to see you change your name

  G                              D
I couldn't stand to see you wed another

    A7                                D
But dear I hope you're happy just the same
[Chorus 1]
G                                D
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel

     A7                                D
That should be ringing now for you and me

    G                                       D
And down the aisle with someone else you're walking

      A7                               D
Those wedding bell will never ring for me
[Verse 2]
                   A7             D
I planned a little cottage in the valley

                A7             D     D7
I even bought a little band of gold

      G                                     D
For I thought some day I'd place it on your finger

    A7                              D
But now the future looks so dark 'n cold
[Chorus 2]
G                                D
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel

  A7                                  D
I hear the children laughing now with glee

   G                           D
At home alone I bow my head in sorrow

    A7                                D
For wedding bells will never ring for me
[Verse 3]
               A              D
I fancy that I see a bunch of roses

                  A7                  D     D7
A blossom from an orange tree in your hair

    G                                D
And while the organ plays I love you truly

       A7                       D
Please let me pretend that I am there
[Chorus 3]
    G                                D
For wedding bells are ringing in the chapel

A7                            D     D7
Ever since the day you set me free

  G                                 D
I knew someday that you would wed another

    A7                            A     D
But wedding bells will never ring fo-or me
