I Went To A Wedding chords by Half Man Half Biscuit

A
 I went to a wedding though only the night time;

I didn’t know them that well,
                         E
I watched on from the margins at the dance floor crowded.


  B7        A
The DJ adhered to the rule of occasion – “Dancing Queen”

“Shoop Shoop Song” “You’re The One That I Want”
              E     F              E
They’re the ones that they want – he knew his trade well I could see.

     B7       A
And at a table nearby I heard a girl saying to a tall balding guest
                        E
“So you’re Brad Friedel: I’m mildly impressed”.
 B7          A
I thought I’d chance my arm, her reply won my heart
                       E
“So, you’re William Pitt – Elder or Younger?”


  B7          A
And then inexplicably for reasons unfathomable
                         E
But to me wholly admirable the DJ played us some Tallis.
  A             B7            E
He yanked off The Corrs in disgust and announced Thomas Tallis:

“Lamentations of Jeremiah”.


 B7             A
Across an empty dancefloor I walked to commend him
                E
And also enquire if he had any Dowland.
  B7                 A
The incident passed, things got back to normal
                         E
At the end of the evening everyone staggered out singing

And they were singing………..


    A             E
Oh you can’t put your foot up in Europe
  A               E
You can’t show your studs on the ‘nent
   A          E
They take a dim view of a slightly raised shoe
  A         B7     E     B7
So think on if you’re up against Ghent, my lad
   A      B7     E   B7 E
Think on if you’re up against Ghent.
