[Mrs. V[Bb]anDort]
It's a beautiful day.
[Mr. Va[F/A]nDort]
It's a rather nice day.
[M[F]rs. VanDort]       [Bbm]
A day for a glorious wedding.
[Mr.[F#] VanDort]               [B]
A rehearsal, my dear, to be perfectly clear.
[Mrs[Bbm]. VanDort]    [F]             [Bbm]
A rehearsal for a glorious wedding.
[M[F#]r. VanDort]    [B]                    [F7]                       [A]                                 [Bbm]
Assuming nothing happens that we don't really know,
[Mrs.[Bbm] Van[C#]Dort]   [Ebm]               [F]                              [Bbm]
That nothing unexpected interferes with the show.
[Mr.[Bbm] And Mrs. V[F7]anDort]     [Bbm]                [F#]
And that's why everything, every last little thing,
[C#]every single [Cdim]tiny micro[C#]scopic little [Cdim]thing must [F]go..[F7].
[M[C#]rs. VanDort[F#m]]
According to plan,
[Mr.[Ab] VanDort]   [C#]
Our son will be married.
[M[Bbm]rs. VanDort[F#m]]   [Bb]
According to plan,
[Mr.[Ab] VanDor[F#]t]
Our family carried,
[Mr. And [Abm]Mrs. VanDort]  [C#]               [F#]                   [B]
We'll go right into the heights of society...
[Mrs. V[Ab]anD[C]ort] [C#]
To the costume balls,
[Mr. Va[Ab]nDo[C]rt]   [C#]
In the hallowed halls.
[Mrs. Va[Eb]nDo[Bb]rt]          [Fm]
Rubbing elbows with the finest.
[Mr. Va[Em/B]nDort]            [Fm]               [C]
Having crumpets with her highness.
[Mr. And [B]Mrs. VanDort]   [E]                [B]                             [C#m]
We'll be there, we'll be seen, having tea with the queen.
We'll for[A]get everything...that we've [F#m]ever ever been.[C#m]

[Mrs. E[Am]verglot]
It's a terrible day
[Mr.[E] Everglot]
Now don't be that way
[Mrs. E[Am]verglot] [E]           [Am]
It's a terrible day for a wedding.
[Mr. Ev[F]erglot]               [Bbm]                   [C#]
It's a sad, sad state of affairs we're in,
[Mrs. Eve[Am]rglot]      [E]              [Am]
That has led to this ominous wedding.
[F][Mr. Everglot][Bb/D]            [E]                    [Am/E]
How could our family have come to this?
[Mr[F]. and Mrs. Eve[Bb/D]rglot]          [E]                  [Am]
To marry off our daughter to the noveaux rich.
[Mrs. Everg[F]lot]
They're so common,
[Mr[C/E]. Everglot]
So coarse.
[Mrs. E[F]verglot]    [E]
Oh, it couldn't be worse!

[Mr. Everglot]
It couldn't be worse? I'm afraid I disagree.
It could be [Dm]land rich bankrupt aristocracy,
without a penny to their [E]name...just like [F]you.[E]..and me.

[Mrs. Everglot]
Oh, dear.
[Mr.[Am] and Mrs. E[E7]verglot]    [Am]               [E7]
And that's why everything, every last little thing,
[C]every single [Bdim]tiny micro[C]scopic little [Bdim]thing must [E7]go... [D]           [E]                         [E7]
[M[Am]rs. Everglo[F]t]
According to plan,
[Mr.[E/G#] Everglot]    [Am]
Our daughter will wed.
[M[Am]rs. Everglo[Fm]t]
According to plan,
[Mr.[G] Evergl[F]ot]
Our family lead,
[Mr. and [G/D]Mrs. Everg[E]lot]    [F]         [Bbm]                [Bbm]                    [F]
From the depths of deepest poverty,

[Bbm] [C#]    [Bbm] [F]

[Mrs. E[G]verglo[C]t]
To the noble realm,
[Mr. Ev[G]erglo[C]t]
Of our ancestors.
[Mr.[Bm] and Mrs. E[Em]verglot]     [Bm]             [Em]                            [E]                                               [Am]
And who'd have guessed in a million years that our daughter, with the face
[Mr. E[E]verglot]    [Am]
of an otter in disgrace,
[Mr. and [E]Mrs. Ever[F]glot]         [G]                  [Fm]                       [Bbm]
Would provide our ticket to our rightful place?

[Bbm][Victoria (speaking)]        [C#]
What if Victor and I don't...like each other?
[C][Mrs. Everglot (speaking)] [Cm]
Do you suppose your father and I like each other?
[G][Victoria (speaking)]
Surely you must...a little...
[Ab][Mr. and M[C#]rs. Everglot (speaking)]
Of course not!
[F][Mrs. Everglot (sp[E/B]eaking)]                    [D]                                      [G]                                          [Gm]
Get those corsets laced properly...I can hear you speak without gasping.
[Bb]Marriage [Adim]is a part[Gm]nership. A li[D7]ttle tit for tat.
You'd think a lifetime[Bb] watching us (singing) [Abm]might have taught her [Eb]that.

Might have taught her [Abm]that.

[Mr. Everglot]
Everything must be perfect

[Mrs. Everglot]
Everything must be perfect
[Mr. and Mrs. Everg[Eb]lot]
Everything must be perfect, perfect,
[Abm][The VanDor[Eb7]ts and the E[Abm]verglots]  [Eb7]
That's why everything, every last little thing,
[B]every single [Bbdim]tiny micro[B]scopic little [Bbdim]thing must [Eb]go...Ac[Eb7]cording to [Abm]plan!
