Oh Maria, I'm so sorry I wrecked your wedding
             Em
You've just gotta believe me
     A7                      C                                G
But just the thought of you takin' your clothes off for that jerk
    D            G                 E                           B7
Oh, it got me drinkin' and then suddenly I'm staggerin' into church
         C                                            G
And I'm dancin' like Baryshnikov all across the high altar
      D                     Em
Oh I bet that you're still mortified
          B
But just think, girl
  C                         G
No one's ever gonna be forgetting
    D                     Em
The day I wrecked your wedding

Oh Maria, I'd get down on my knees girl
             Em
You've just gotta believe me
     A7                      C                        G
But just the sight of you in your brand new weddin' dress
    D             G                     E                                 B7
Oh, it got me so upset. And then your father's screamin' "You no good lazy punk,
     C                               G
I always knew you were a drunk" And your mother, she's havin'
    D               Em
Her 19th nervous breakdown
          B
But just think girl
  C                         G
No one's ever gonna be forgetting

Oh Maria, I'll do anything you ask me to, I swear I'll change
           F                         G
I'll even give up drinkin', hangin' out with the boys
        E7                          E7         C7
'cause I just can't live without your body and you
                     F                  G
Oh Maria, I'll even sell my Strat, give up the band
              A                              B
You better believe me, girl, this time it's true

But 10 years from now this is all goin' to be one big happy memory
    D            G                 E                           B7
Oh your old man'll even grow to love me, I'll give him 6 grandchildren
         C                                     G
I'll be so respectable, I might even run for president, I'll be so electable
       D               Em
I'll keep you happy and expectable and forever pregnant
  C                         G
