G : 320003 G*: 320033 [Verse]
G                     G*            G
She was a pretty good looking young girl

                            D
And she kissed me in such a way

       G                      G*          G
But to get anything, she said show me the ring

             D            G
The way they did in those days
[Pre-Chorus]
        B7                    Em
Well I never thought too much about it

    C                 G
If I was the marrying kind

    B7                      Em
But any young man worth his salt or a damn

    A7                  D
Has other things on his mind
[Chorus]
    G                C     G
Get ready Marie, get ready Marie

                             D
Get ready for dreams to come true

    G                C         G
Get ready Marie, get ready for me

                D             G
There’s so many things we can do
[Verse]
G                           G*    G
Well I awoke drunk from the night before

                             D
On the morning of my wedding day

G                              G*            G
And the best man said man, the best thing to do

              D         G
Is just keep going that way
[Pre-Chorus]
        B7                       Em
But my pretty young bride wasn’t laughing

     C                           G
When I tripped and fell down the aisle

        B7                     Em
And though I was a pain, still no one could complain

     A7                 D
That I wasn’t wearing a smile
[Chorus]
    G                C     G
Get ready Marie, get ready Marie

                             D
Get ready for dreams to come true

    G                C         G
Get ready Marie, get ready for me

                D             G
There’s so many things we can do

        B7                   Em
No this isn’t the end of our story

       C                     G
No our marriage stuck like a habit

      B7                         Em
But I had a good hunch, when she kissed me a bunch

          A7                     D
She could do other things like a rabbit

    G                C     G
Get ready Marie, get ready Marie

                             D
Get ready for dreams to come true

    G                C         G
Get ready Marie, get ready for me

                D             G
There’s so many things we can do
