[Verse 1]
A
It was a teenage wedding
A
And the old folks wished them well
A
You could see that Pierre
                          E
Did truly love the mademoiselle
E
And now the young monsieur and madame
E
Have rung the chapel bell
E
C'est la vie say the old folks
                              A
It goes to show you never can tell

They firnished off an apartment

With a two room Roebuck sale

The cooperator was crammed
                          E7
With TV dinners and gingerale
E7
But when Pierre found work
E7
The little money coming worked out well
E7
C'est la vie say the old folks
                              A
It goes to show you never can tell
 
 
[Verse 3]
A
They had a hi-fi phono
A
Boy, did they let it blast
A
Seven hundred little records
                       E7
All rocking rhythm and jazz
E7
But when the sun went down
E7
The rapid tempo of the music fell
E7
C'est la vie say the old folks
                              A
It goes to show you never can tell
