F  C  Bb  C  x4
 
[Verse 1]
F              C                 Bb   
  Marry me, he said, through his 
         C               F
rotten teeth, bad breath, and then
F           C            Bb        
Marry me instead of that strapping 
      C             F
young goatherd, but when
F            C           Bb         
I was in his bed, and my father had 
C
sold me
  F                 C                 
I knew I hadn't any choice, hushed my 
Bb              C
voice, did what any girl would do and

[Prechorus 1]
Bb         C         Dm          C
When I'm beheaded at least I was wedded
    Bb        C         Dm          
And when I am buried at least I was 
C
married
     Bb        C           Dm         
I'll hide my behavior with wine as my 
A
savior
 
[Chorus]
     Dm   C    F         C          
But, oh, what beautiful things I'll 
 F
wear
C    F         C           F
What beautiful dresses and hair
C   F        C         F
I'm lucky to share his bed
C F              C            F
Especially since I'll soon be dead
 
[Verse 2]
F            C               Bb        
Marry me, he said, god, he's ugly, but 
C          F
fortune is ours
F              C          Bb         
Running in the gardens enjoying men, 
C          F
women, and flowers
F              C           Bb          
Then I break a glass and I slit my own 
C          F
innermost thigh
F                C             
So that I can pretend that I'm 
Bb              C
menstru...well, unavailable
 
[Prechorus 2]
   Bb         C              Dm      
My life is arranged but this union's 
    C
deranged
        Bb          C              
So I'll fuck who I choose for I've 
Dm          C
nothing to lose
         Bb          C               
And when master's displeased I'll be 
Dm         A
down on my knees again
 
[Chorus]
Dm  C     F         C           F
Oh, what beautiful things I'll wear
C    F         C           F
What beautiful dresses and hair
C   F        C         F
I'm lucky to share his bed
C F              C            F
Especially since I'll soon be dead
 
[Bridge]
     Bb        C         Dm           
When dining on peacock I know I won't 
C
swallow
        Bb                 C           
Through balls, births, and bridge games
   Dm             C
 I know what will follow
      Bb         C             Dm    
We're coupled together through hell, 
          C
hurt, and hunger
   Bb         C           Dm           
Or at least until husband finds someone
 C
 younger
     Bb      C        Dm         
Yes, fertilization is part of my 
 C
station
  Bb          C           Dm    C
I laugh as he drabs me in anticipation
   Bb            C               Dm  
Of sons who will run things when I'm 
      C
under covers
    Bb             C              Dm   
But whose children are they? Why, mine 
       C
and my lover's!
 
[Chorus]
     F   C    F         C           
But, oh, what beautiful things I'll 
F
wear
C    F         C           F
What beautiful dresses and hair
C   F        C         F
I'm lucky to share his bed
C F              C            F
Especially since I'll soon be dead
 
[Chorus]
C    F         C           F
What beautiful things I'll wear
C    F         C           F
What beautiful dresses and hair
C   F        C         F
I'm lucky to share his bed
C  F        C
So why do I wish I was...
