_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ I've [Ab] been married and [Db] married and often I've [Bb] sighed.
_ _ _ I'm never the bridesmaid, I'm [Db] always the [Eb] bride. _ _ _ _
_ Well I'd never [F] divorce [B] them, _ [Gb] cause I [Gb] haven't the [Bb] heart.
[Bm] _
_ But [Ab] remember these [Ab] sweet [Db] words, _ till [D] death do [Db] us [Eb] part.
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab]
I've married [Db] many men, a [F] ton of them, [Ab]
and though [Db] I was untrue [C] to none of them, [Bbm]
I've
[Eb] bumped off every [C] single one of [Ab] them [Bbm]
to [Eb] keep my [Cm] love alive.
[Ab] Paul was frail, he looked [Bb] direct to me, [Ab] at night he was [Db] a [C] horse's neck [F] to me.
[Bb] So I [Eb] performed [C] an [F] appendectomy _ [Bbm] _
[Db] to keep [Cm] my love _ alive.
[Dbm] Well [C] Thomas had [B] _ _ [Cm] insomnia, [Dbm]
he [Gb] couldn't sleep [B] at night, _ [Bbm] so I [Eb] bought a little [A] _ [Ab] arsenic.
[B] He's sleeping [Bb] now, [Eb] alright.
_ _ [Ab] Well Philip [Db] played the harp, I [Bb] cussed the thing, I crowned him [Abm] with his harp [Cm] to bust the [F] thing.
[Bbm] And now he plays [Eb] where harps are just the [Fm] thing [Eb] to keep my [Cm] love [Bb] alive.

_ [Ab] _ _ _ I thought that George had possibilities, _ but his [F]
flirtations made me ill at [Db] ease, and when
I'm ill at [C] ease, I kill at [F] _ _ [Fm] ease.
[Em] To keep [Bm] my love [Eb] alive, Charles [Db] came from a [Bb] sanatorium, _ [Eb] he yelled [C] for drinks in [Cm] my emporium,
[Bbm] so I mixed one [Eb] drink, he's [Bb] in _ [A] memoriam.
[Bb] _
_ [Eb] To keep [Cm] my love [A] alive, _ [Dbm]
Frankie _ [B] was a singing [C] bird, a [Dbm]
regular [Gb] nightingale, [B] that's why [Db] I
tossed [Eb] him off [Cm] my balcony [Ab] _ [Eb] to see [Bm] if he could [Eb] _ fly.
_ [Ab] _
_ _ Anthony indulged in [F] fratricide, he [Db] killed his dad, [C] and that was _ [Bbm] patricide.
One night I stabbed him [Cm] by my [F] mattress _ [Fm] side, [Bbm] to keep my love [Fm] alive.
To [Db] keep my love [Eb] _ _
_ [B] _ [Ab] alive.
