Lyrics

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

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

They’re (Gm7)nev er seen a (C7)lone,

so they’re (C7)known as the (Gm7)cou ple.

As I’ve in di (Bbma7)cat (Bb6)ed,

they are nev er (G7)quite sep a rat ed,

they (A7)are peas in a (F7)pod.

Don’t you think that it’s (E)odd?

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

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

If (Gm7)one says no it’s (C7)yes,

more or (C7)less, with the (Gm7)cou ple.

But they’re laugh pro (Bbma7)vok (Bb6)ing,

yet (A7)they real ly don’t (F7)know they’re jok ing.

Don’t you (Bbma7)find

when love is blind

it’s kind of (F)odd!

(A7)No
