[Verse]
G G* G
She was a pretty good looking young girl
D
And she kissed me in such a way
G G* G
But to get anything, she said show me the ring
D G
The way they did in those days
[Pre-Chorus]
B7 Em
Well I never thought too much about it
C G
If I was the marrying kind
B7 Em
But any young man worth his salt or a damn
A7 D
Has other things on his mind
[Chorus]
G C G
Get ready Marie, get ready Marie
D
Get ready for dreams to come true
G C G
Get ready Marie, get ready for me
D G
There’s so many things we can do
[Verse]
G G* G
Well I awoke drunk from the night before
D
On the morning of my wedding day
G G* G
And the best man said man, the best thing to do
D G
Is just keep going that way
[Pre-Chorus]
B7 Em
But my pretty young bride wasn’t laughing
C G
When I tripped and fell down the aisle
B7 Em
And though I was a pain, still no one could complain
A7 D
That I wasn’t wearing a smile
[Chorus]
G C G
Get ready Marie, get ready Marie
D
Get ready for dreams to come true
G C G
Get ready Marie, get ready for me
D G
There’s so many things we can do
B7 Em
No this isn’t the end of our story
C G
No our marriage stuck like a habit
B7 Em
But I had a good hunch, when she kissed me a bunch
A7 D
She could do other things like a rabbit
G C G
Get ready Marie, get ready Marie
D
Get ready for dreams to come true
G C G
Get ready Marie, get ready for me
D G
There’s so many things we can do
G G* G
She was a pretty good looking young girl
D
And she kissed me in such a way
