G      Em     G      Em
I had entered into a marriage
G      Em           G           Em
In the summer of my twenty-first year
G        Em         G       Em
And the bells rang for our wedding
G        Em     G         Em
Only now do I remember it clear


   Am         C           G  Em
Alright, alright, alright!


G                  Em
No more a rake and no more a bachelor
G                   Em
I was wedded and it whetted my thirst
G                    Em
Until her womb start spilling out babies
G               Em
Only then did I reckon my curse


    Am        C          G  Em
Alright, alright, alright!
(x2)


G          Em         G                    Em
First came Eziah with his crinkled little fingers
G         Em                 G             Em
Then came Charlotte and that wretched girl Dawn
G        Em      G    Em
Ugly my fanwy died on delivery
G          Em        G       Em
Mercifully taking her mother along


    Am        C          G  Em 
Alright, alright, alright!


G           Em         G        Em
What can one do when one is widower
G          Em           G            Em
Shamefully saddled with three little pests
G          Em             G           Em
All that I wanted was the freedom of a new life
G      Em     G         Em
So my burden I began to divest


    Am        C           G Em
Alright, alright, alright!
(x2)

G           Em            G          Em
Charlotte I buried after feeding her foxglove
G        Em            G              Em
Dawn was easy, she was drowned in the bath
G       Em           G      Em
Eziah fought but was easily bested
G         Em        G            Em
Burned his body for incurring my wrath


    Am        C          G Em...
Alright, alright, alright!


G                Em        G          Em
And that's how I came your humble narrator
G     Em        G        Em
To be living so easy and free
G          Em         G          Em
Expect you think that I should be haunted
G      Em           G       Em
But it never really bothers me


    Am        C          G Em
Alright, alright, alright!
