If No One Ever Marries Me - Natalie Merchant From the album 'Leave Your Sleep' (2010) Lyrics from a poem by Laurence Alma-Tadema (1865-1940) Chorded by Leonard The first G chords in intro and verses need some variation on the B-string: 3 to 1 to 0. G C D C G Em G Well if no one ever marries me C And I don't see why they should D Nurse says I'm not pretty C G Em And you know I'm seldom good, seldom good G Well if no one ever marries me C I shan't mind very much D I'll buy a squirrel in a cage C G And a little rabbit-hutch C If no one marries me Am G D If no one marries me C If no one marries me Am G D If no one marries me Em Well if no one marries me G I'll have a cottage near a wood C And a pony all my own D A little lamb quite clean and tame C G That I can take to town G When I'm really getting old C At twenty-eight or nine D I'll buy myself a little orphan-girl C G And bring her up as mine C If no one marries me Am G D If no one marries me C If no one marries me Am G D No one marries me C Well if no one marries me Am G D Marries me C Well if no one marries me Am G D Marries me Em Well if no one marries me
