E
The day that we were married
A
The people shook my hand
B7
They said we two were now as one
A E
And me a lucky man
E
From that day on that's all I ever
A
Wanted us to be
B7
Until the day you told me
E
We'd be three
E
Then we began the waiting
A
And made our little jokes
B7
You couldn't look at monkeys
A E
And I gave up my smokes
E
You prophasized he'd be a boy
A
And look a lot like me
B7
Lord but I was proud
E
That we'd be three
F
One night the endless days of waiting
Bb
All came to an end
C7
You woke me from my restless sleep
Bb F
And said we must go in
F
The sun won't rise on any day
Bb
Again like that for me
C7
The day had come when
F
Two would soon be three
F
I smoked an endless burning chain
Bb
Of bitter cigarettes
C7
I must have walked a thousand miles
Bb F
With fear in every step
F
Two long days and two long nights
Bb
That I refused to sleep
C7
And they were losing hope
F
That we'd be three
F#
The preacher came, the doctor came
B
And said I must be brave
C7#
I remember saying
B F
It was more than I could take
F#
Now what's the world to do with
B
Any crazy man like me
C7#
A lonely one who wanted
B C#7 F#
To be three
