No (Dm)mat ter where they (G7)go

they are (G7)known as the (Dm)cou ple.

They’re (Gm)nev er seen a (C7)lone,

so they’re (C7)known as the (Gm)cou ple.

As I’ve in di (Bb)cat (Bb6)ed,

they are nev er (G7)quite sep a rat ed, (Bbmaj7)they are peas in a (Dm7)pod.

Don’t you (F7)think that it’s odd?

Their (Dm)hab its, I con (G7)fess,

none can (G7)guess with the (Dm)cou ple.

If (Gm)one says no, it’s (C7)yes,

more or (C7)less, with the (Gm)cou ple.

But they’re laugh prov (Bb)vok (Bb6)ing;

yet they real ly don’t (Dm7)know they’re (F7)jok ing.

Don’t you (Bb)find

when love is (C7sus)blind

it’s kind of (F)odd!

No (Dm)mat ter where they (G7)go
