Intro
Verse 1
I have the invitation that you sent me
You wanted me to see you change my name
I couldnt stand to see you wed another
But dear I hope youre happy just the same
Chorus
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
Should be ringing out for you and me
Down the aisle with someone else youre walking
Wedding bells will never ring for me
Verse 2
I planned a little cottage in the valley
I even bought a little band of gold
I thought someday Id place it on your finger
Now the future looks so dark and cold
Chorus 2
Wedding bells are ringin in the chapel
I hear the children laughing out with glee
At home alone I hang my head in sorrow
Wedding bells will never ring for me
Bridge
Ooh oohh ahhh oooh oooh
Ooh oohh ahhh oooh oooh
Verse 3
I fancy that I see a bunch of roses
A blossom from an orange tree in your hair
While the organ plays I love you truly
Please let me pretend that its me there
Chorus 3
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
Ever since the day you set me free
I knew someday that you would wed another
But wedding bells will never ring for me
Wedding bells will never ring for me
Wedding bells will never ring for me
