[Introduction]
E

[Verse 1]
E B7
Well, the bride looked a picture in the gown that her mama wore
B7 E
When she was married herself nearly twenty-seven years before
E B7
They had to change the style a little but to me it looked just fine
B7 E
They stayed up all night, but they got it finished just in time

[Verse 2]
E B7
Now on the arm of her daddy, she's a-walkin' down the aisle
B7 E
I see you catch my eye and give me a secret smile
E B7
Maybe it's too old-fashioned, but we once were close friends
B7 E
Oh but the way that she looks today, she never could have then.

[Chorus 1]
A
Well I can see her now in her tight blue jeans
E
Pumpin' all the money in the record machine
A
Spinnin' like a top, you shoulda seen her go
E B7 E
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
E B7 E
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
E B7 E
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
E B7 E
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

[Verse 3]
E B7
Now her proud daddy only wanna give his little girl the best
B7 E
And so he put down a grand on a cozy little lover's nest
E B7
You could've called the reception an unqualified success
B7 E
At a flash hotel for a hundred and fifty guests

[Verse 4]
E B7
Now take a look at the bridegroom smilin' pleased as pie
B7 E
Shakin' hands all around with a glassy look in his eye
E B7
He got a real good job and his shirt and tie is nice
B7 E
But I remember the time when she would never even look at him twice

[Chorus 2]
A
But I can see her now drinkin' with the boys
