Intro:
acoustic 12-string w/organ:
Verse 1:
Girl, I heard you're getting married
Heard you're getting married
This time you're really sure
And this is the end
They say you really mean it
This guy's the one that makes you feel
So safe, so sane, and so secure, and

Chorus :
If he really loves you more than me
Maybe it's the best thing

Coda :

(Never, never, never, ever gonna get married)
Oh girl, go on and get married
(Never, never, never, ever gonna get married)
Girl, I'm never, never gonna marry, no no
(Never, never, never, ever gonna get married)
'Cause it's the worst that could happen
background vocals continue to fade
