If  you could love  me as a wife
And  for my wedding  gift, your life
Should  that be all  I’ll ever need
 Or is there more I’m looking for?
And  should I read  between the lines
And  look for blessings  in disguise
To  make me handsome,  rich, and wise
 Is that really what you want?
 I am  a whore I do confess
 But I put  you on just like a wedding dress
 And I run  down the aisle
 I run  down the aisle
 I’m a prodigal  with no way home
 But I put  you on just like a ring of gold
 And I run  down the aisle
 I run  down the aisle to you
So  could you love  this bastard child
Though  I don’t trust  you to provide
With  one hand in  a pot of gold
 And with the other in your side
I  am so easily  satisfied
By  the call of lovers  less wild
That  I would take  a little cash
 Over your very flesh and blood
 Repeat Chorus
Because  money cannot buy
 A husband’s jealous eye
 When you  have knowingly  deceived  his wife
 Repeat Chorus x2(First time without "to you")
 Repeat Intro

[Am]If you could [F]love me as a [C]wife  [C/B]       [Em7]
[Am]And for my [F]wedding gift, your [C]life  [C/B]       [Em7]
[Am]Should that be [F]all I’ll ever [C]need
Or is there more I’m looking [Am]for? [F]     [C]         [Gsus4]

[Am]And should I [F]read between the [C]lines  [C/B]       [Em7]
[Am]And look for [F]blessings in dis[C]guise  [C/B]       [Em7]
[Am]To make me [F]handsome, rich, and [C]wise
Is that really what you [Am]want?[F]    [C]        [Gsus4]

I [F]am a whore I do confess
But I [Am]put you on just like a wedding dress
And I [C]run down the aisle
I [G]run down the aisle
I’m a [F]prodigal with no way home
But I [Am]put you on just like a ring of gold
And I [C]run down the aisle
I [G]run down the aisle to [C]you

[Am]So could you [F]love this bastard [C]child  [C/B]       [Em7]
[Am]Though I don’t [F]trust you to pro[C]vide  [C/B]       [Em7]
[Am]With one hand [F]in a pot of [C]gold
And with the other in your [Am]side [F]     [C]         [Gsus4]

[Am]I am so [F]easily satis[C]fied  [C/B]       [Em7]
[Am]By the call of [F]lovers less [C]wild  [C/B]       [Em7]
[Am]That I would [F]take a little [C]cash
Over your very flesh and [Am]blood [F]     [C]         [Gsus4]

Repeat Chorus

[C]Because money [G]cannot [Am]buy
A [C]husband’s [G]jealous [Am]eye
When [C]you have [G]knowing[Am]ly deceive[C]d his [F7]wife

Repeat Chorus x2(First time without "to you")
