You sure that's what you want,

To make a good start. Jane? Yeah,

so that when his hair is mostly gone,
Am
C
and your waist is not so slim,
you'll still be with him.
I've known Ralph for over two years now,
F
I'm not saying you don't know him,
and I'm not saying he don't care,
Am
but still you gotta prepare.
Dsus4
Cause whether or not there's
C
soon enough there's sacrifice.
G#
So it's not all roses
C
and it's not about dreams come true.
Am
No mat ter what I wish for you,
D
it's more about things.
and you can't go throwing money around.
I hope you got
more than you pawned me.
And even if you do,

Especially when the children come.
I'm not married and you got me

you know it.
Then your life won't be your own.

all the nights you lie awake

for your children's sake.

Now you've found the fella for you.
Esus4
E
So you'll each wear a groove
in your side of the bed,
Bm
each learn to ignore things
G
And you'll smile when you think
about the day you were wed.
Is that all? I guess.
You're not going to tell me
about the birds and the bees?
Don't be fresh.
Bm
And don't go thinking that's the whole thing,
because it's not.
It's just after a while,
G
it's not that important.
You won't forget to talk to Uncle
Wynne, will ya? Jane.
It's a big thing,
getting married.
I'll come home as early as I can
to help with dinner.

told her what it was like.
To be married.
