Dave Edmunds – (I Knew The Bride) When She Used To Rock ‘n’ Roll Chords

Well the bride looked a picture in the gown that her momma wore
When she was married herself nearly 27 years before
They had to change the style just a little but it looked just fine
Stayed up all night but they got it finished just in time

Now on the arm of her daddy she’s a walking down the aisle
And she catches my eye and she gives me a secret smile
Maybe it’s too old-fashioned but we were once close friends
Oh but the way that she looks today she never could have then

Well I can see her now, in her tight blue jeans
Pumping all her money in the record machine
Spinning like a top, you should a seen her go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

Now a proud daddy only wanna give his little girl the best
So he put down a grand on a cosy little lovers’ nest
You could have called the reception an unqualified success
And a flash hotel for a hundred and fifty guests

Take a look at the bridegroom smiling pleased as pie
Shaking hands all around with a glassy look in his eye
He got a real good job and his shirt and tie is nice
But I remember a time when she would never even look at him twice

Well I can see her now drinking with the boys
Breaking their hearts like they were toys
She used to do the pony she used to do the stroll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

Well I can see her now with her headphones on
Jumping up and down to her favorite song, I still
remember when she used to want to make a lot of noise
Hopping and a bopping with a city load of boys

She used to wanna party she used to wanna go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
