G
I had entered into a marriage
G
In the summer of my twenty-first year
G
And the bells rang for our wedding
G
Only now do I remember it clear
Am Cm Gm Em Gm Em
Alright, alright, alright
G
No more a rake and no more a bachelor
G
I was wedded and it whetted my thirst
G
Until her womb started spilling out babies
G
Only then did I reckon my curse
Am Cm Gm Em Gm Em
Alright, alright, alright
Am Cm Gm Em Gm Em
Alright, alright, alright
G
First came Isaiah with his crinkled little fingers
G
Then came Charlotte and that wretched girl Dawn
G
Ugly Myfanwy died on delivery
G
Mercifully taking her mother along
Am Cm Gm Em Gm Em
Alright, alright, alright
G
What can one do when one is a widower
G
Shamefully saddled with three little pests?
G
All that I wanted was the freedom of a new life
G
So my burden I began to divest
Am Cm Gm Em Gm Em
Alright, alright, alright
Am Cm Gm Em Gm Em
Alright, alright, alright
G
Charlotte I buried after feeding her foxglove
G
Dawn was easy, she was drowned in the bath
G
Isaiah fought but was easily bested
G
Burned his body for incurring my wrath
Am Cm Gm Em Gm Em
Alright, alright, alright
G
And that's how I came your humble narrator
G
To be living so easy and free
G
Expect that you think that I should be haunted
G
But it never really bothers me
Am Cm Gm Em Gm Em
Alright, alright, alright
Am Cm Gm Em Gm Em
Alright, alright, alright
Am
