[Intro]
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

[Verse 1]
E                                                        BWell, the bride was a picture in the gown that her mama wore
B                                                       EWhen she was married herself nearly twenty-seven years before
E                                                         BThey had to change the style a little but it looked just fine
B                                                       EStayed up all night, but they got it finished just in time


[Verse 2]
E                                                    BNow on the arm of her daddy, she's walkin' down the aisle
B                                            EI see her catch my eye and give me a secret smile
E                                                     BMaybe it's too old fashioned, but we once were close friends
B                                                            EOh but the way that she looks today, she never could have then


[Chorus]
AWell, I can see her now in her tight blue jeans
EStuffin' all her money in the record machine
ASpinnin' like a top, you should of seen her go
E                          B                EI knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
E                          B                 EI knew the bride when she used to rock and roll


[Verse 3]
E                                                           BWell, the proud daddy only want to give his little girl the best
B                                                ESo he put down a grand on a cozy little lover's nest
E                                                   BYou could have called the reception an unqualified success
B                                         EAt a flash hotel for a hundred and fifty guests


[Verse 4]
E                                                      BWell, take a look at the bridegroom smilin' pleased as pie
B                                                  EShakin' hands all around with a glassy look in his eye
E                                                BHe got a real good job and his shirt and tie is nice
B                                                              EBut I remember a time when she never would have looked at him twice


[Chorus]
AWell, I can see her now drinkin' with the boys
EBreakin' their hearts like they were toys
B                                           EShe used to do the pony, she used to do the stroll
E                          B                EI knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
E                          B                 EI knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
E                          B                EI knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
E                          B                 EI knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

[Chorus]
AWell, I can see her now with her walkman on
EStruttin' up and down to her favorite song
AI still remember when she used to want to make a lot of noise
EHoppin' and boppin' with the street corner boys


[Outro]
B                                          EShe used to wanna party, she used to wanna go
