Capo III

A
A
It was a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well
E E7
You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle

E E7
And now the young monsieur and madame have rung the chapel bell,
E E7 A (A E7 A *)
"C'est la vie", say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell

A
They furnished off an apartment with a two room Roebuck sale
E E7
The coolerator was crammed with TV dinners and ginger ale,
E E7
But when Pierre found work, the little money comin' worked out well
E E7 A (A E7 A *)
"C'est la vie", say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell

A
They had a hi-fi phono, boy, did they let it blast
E E7
Seven hundred little records, all rock, rhythm and jazz
E E7
But when the sun went down, the rapid tempo of the music fell
E E7 A (A E7 A *)
"C'est la vie", say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell

A
They bought a souped-up jitney, 'twas a cherry red '53,
E E7
They drove it down to Orleans to celebrate the anniversary
E E7
It was there that Pierre was married to the lovely mademoiselle
E E7 A (A E7 A *)
"C'est la vie", say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell

A E E7 E E7 A

A
It was a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well
E E7
You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle
E E7
And now the young monsieur and madame have rung the chapel bell,
E E7 A
"C'est la vie", say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
