          F#                                                  (F#)                  
It was a    teenage wedding and the old folks wished 'em well 
          F#                                             C#7     (C#7)                   
You could    see that Pierre did truly love the mademoi -    selle 
            C#7                                                  (C#7)                
And now the    young monsieur and madam have rung the chapel bell 
         C#7                                                     F#    (F#)              
C'est la    vie say the old folks, it goes to show you never can    tell 


               F#                                              (F#)                 
They finished    off an apartment with a two-room Roebuck sale 
            F#                                             C#7    (C#7)                  
The coole -    rator was jammed with TV dinners and ginger    ale 
         (C#7)                                                          (C#7)         
And when      Pierre found work, the little money comin' worked out well 
         C#7                                                     F#    (F#)              
C'est la    vie say the old folks, it goes to show you never can    tell 


           F#                                        (F#)                           
They had a    hi-fi phono, boy did they let it blast 
      F#                                                      C#7     (C#7)              
Seven    hundred little records, all blues, rock, rhythm, and    jazz 
             C#7                                             (C#7)                   
But when the     sun went down, the volume went down as well 
         C#7                                                     F#    (F#)              
C'est la    vie say the old folks, it goes to show you never can    tell 


              F#                                                     (F#)           
They bought a    souped-up jitney, it was a cherry red fifty - three 
             F#                                                   C#7  (C#7)              
And drove it    down to New Orleans to celebrate their anniversa -   ry 
       C#7                                                         (C#7)             
It was     there where Pierre was wedded to the lovely mademoiselle 
         C#7                                                     F#    (F#)              
C'est la    vie say the old folks, it goes to show you never can    tell
