Standard (EADGBE)

Golden blunders come in pairs, they're very unaware

 What they know is what they've seen

Education wasn't fun, but now that school is done

 Higher learning's just begun

You're gonna watch what you say for a long time

You're gonna suffer the guilt forever

You're gonna get in the way at the wrong time

You're gonna mess up things you thought you would never

Disappointment breeds contempt, it make you feel inept

 Never thought you'd feel alone (at home)

His and hers forever more, throw your freedom out of the door

 Before you find out what it's for

You're gonna watch what you say for a long time (boy)

You're gonna suffer the guilt forever

You're gonna get in the way at the wrong time (girl)

You're gonna mess up things you thought you would never

E/G# A (x ~5)

Four weeks seemed like a long time then - but nine months is longer now

 But even if you never speak again - you've already made the wedding vow

You're gonna watch what you say for a long time (boy)

You're gonna suffer the guilt forever

You're gonna get in the way at the wrong time (girl)

You're gonna mess up things you thought you would never

[stop]

Honeymoons will never start, bonds will blow apart

 Just as fast as they were made

Men and women please beware: don't pretend you care

 Nothing lasts when nothing's there

You're gonna watch what you say for a long time (boy)

You're gonna suffer the guilt forever

You're gonna get in the way at the wrong time (girl)

You're gonna mess up things you thought you would never
