* always strum once [Intro] E E E E F [Verse 1]
E
  I promise not to rip you off

E
  And I promise not to sell you out

E
  I will never smoke all your stash if I happen to find it whilst tidying up

E                                     F
  Which, let's face it, isn't likely

                                           E
Well, we would always leave you at least a joint's worth, anyway

                                             E
And I will never eat the last bit of cereal, and then put the empty packet back, hoping you won't notice,

                 E
Or if I do, I'll pay for the next lot, I promise

                                      F
'Cos I know that really gets on your nerves

E
  And I will never sleep with any of your friends - well, not your best friends
[Chorus]
G   C
    I don't know just what I'm meant to do

G
I don't want to make it wrong for you

F
How can we escape what's happened to

Fm                             Bb
All those others who've gone before us two?

C
Baby, we have lived together

G
Now we'll do it all forever

F
Hold my hand, don't ever let it go

Fm                               Bb
Close your eyes, hold tight, and here we go
[Verse 2]
E                       E
    And how do we avoid being like all those other cheese-masters?

                                             E
Demonstrating the facilities of their new car and the trouser press

                    E                                       F
From hunter-gatherer to washer-dryer is a long, strange trip

E                                E                                           E
  And what if our kids turn into pudgy blobs, wearing Union Jack underpants, addicted to coffee whitener?

E                                                          E
Bloated caricatures of something vaguely recognisable as a human being - a human being that you once loved
[Chorus]
G   C
    I don't know just what I'm meant to do

G
I don't want to make it wrong for you

F
How can we escape what's happened to

Fm                             Bb
All those others who've gone before us two?

C
Baby, we have lived together

G
Now we'll do it all forever

F
Hold my hand, don't ever let it go

Fm                               Bb
Close your eyes, hold tight, and here we go
[Bridge]
C/E
So this is it:

C/E
We're walking down the aisle

C/E
The dawning of a new era

C/E
Is this the start of a new airbrushed Disney-life

C/E
Or some 36-part depressing-as-hell Northern drama to be repeated every night, for the rest of our lives?

C/E
Oh! and now I'm frightened

C/E
Oh yeah, I'm shitting Barratt houses here

C/E
Is this the right thing?

C/E
And then suddenly I'm turning to look at your face and I'm saying:

               C/G
"I do", "I do", "I do"
[Chorus]
C
I don't know just what I'm meant to do

G
I don't want to make it wrong for you

F
How can we escape what's happened to

Fm                             Bb
All those others who've gone before us two?

C
Baby, we have lived together

G
Now we'll do it all forever

F
Hold my hand, don't ever let it go

Fm                               Bb
Close your eyes, hold tight, and here we go
[Outro]

 Fm      Bb
Ahaaah - la la

C
Oh - oooh

   G
La-la mmm (tulu tulu)

          F
La-la-lalala (tulu-tulu)

          Fm                       Bb
La-la-lalala (tulu-tulu) la-la-lalala
