Verse 1

         G    C   G
Remember what you promised
Not more than a week ago
    C             Em
You promised that you’d marry me
Standing in your mama’s door

Now you’ve broken you’re promise

Go marry whom you may
For this old world’s so big and so wide
I’ll ramble back some day

Now you’ve gone and left me
I don’t know what I’ll do
I’d give the world and half of my life
Just to be married to you
