Makin whoopi(ver.2)

Key: CHard

Bbm

CAFGCC7FDm

Another bride, another June, another sunny honeymoon,

E7A7D7G7CAmDmG

another season, another reason for makin? whoopie.

CAFGCC7FDm

A lot of shoes, a lot of rice, the groom is nervous, he answers twice,

E7A7D7G7CFCG

it?s really killing, that he?s so willing, to makin? whoopie.

BbmFBbmC

Now picture a little lovenest down where the roses cling,

BbmFBbmG7

picture the same sweet lovenest, think what a year can bring.

CAFGCC7FDm

He?s washing dishes and baby clothes, he?s so ambitious, he even sews.

E7A7D7G7

But don?t forget, folks, that?s what you get, folks, from makin?

CAmDmG

whoopie.

Instrumental Verse

CAFGCC7FDm

Another year, maybe less, what?s this I hear? Well, can?t you guess ?

E7A7D7G7CAmDmG

She feels neglected and he?s suspected of makin? whoopie.

CAFGCC7FDm

She sits alone most every night, he doesn?t phone, he doesn?t write,

E7A7D7G7

he says he?s busy, but she says, ?Busy? He?s makin?

CAmDmG

whoopie.?

BbmFBbmC

Now he doesn?t make much money, only five thousand buck,

BbmFBbmG7

some judge, who thinks he?s funny, says. ?You pay six to her!?

CAFGCC7FDm

He says, ?Now Judge, suppose I fail ?? Judge says, ?Budge right into jail!

E7A7D7G7CAmDmG

You better keep her, I think it?s cheaper than makin? whoopie.

C (½) Am (½) Dm (½) G (½) (progression x2) End on C
