Intro:
A, D, F#m, D
A
If you want to see the bottom of the sea
D F#m
I'll steal a submarine
A
If you want a farm in South Dakota
D F#m
Honey, I'll start planting seeds
E D
I'll grow you a thousand kinds of fruit
Just stop asking me to marry you
A, D, F#m, D x2
A
If you miss the friend you had in Jesus
D F#m
I'll sing you all those gospel hymns

If you'd rather hear something more exotic
D F#m
I'll study violin
E D
And learn the work of Tchaikovsky
Just stop asking for a wedding ring
A, D, F#m, D x2
F#m
Three-layer cake and a posy bouquet
A
What's the hurry, honey? Can't we keep it this way?
F#m E
Oh, for fuck's - so long as you stay a gamophobe,
D C
These hips are in escrow
A
If you want to set foot on the moon
D F#m
I'll be your Jack Kennedy
A
And if you want to drink yourself to death
D F#m
Baby, I'll build a brewery
E D
We'll fade away, warm and making spoons
Just stop asking me to marry you
