Honor To Us All Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[C]This is what you give me to work with
Well, honey, I've seen [Em]worse
[Dm]We're going to turn this [Fm]sow's ear
[G]Into a silk pur[C]se
[C]

[Verse 2]
[C]We'll have you washed and dried
Primped and polished
Till you glow with [G]pride
Trust me recipe for instant bride
You'll bring honor to us [C]all
[C][C][C]

[Verse 3]
[C]Wait and see when we're through
Boys will gladly go to war for [G]you
With good fortune
And a great hairdo
You'll bring honor to us [C]all

[Chorus 1]
A [G]girl can bring her family
Great honor in one [C]way
By [E]striking a good [Am]match
And [D]this could be that [G]day

[Verse 4]
[C]Men want girls with good taste
Calm, obedient, who work fast-[G]paced
With good breeding
And a tiny waist
You'll bring honor to us [C]all

[Chorus 2]
We [G]all must serve our Emperor
Who guards us from the [C]Huns
A [E]man by bearing [Am]arms
A [D]girl by bearing [G]sons

[Verse 5]
[C]When we're through you can't fail
Like a lotus blossom soft and [G]pale
How could any fellow
Say "no sale"
You'll bring honor to us [C]all
[C]

[Bridge 1]
[C]There, you're ready
Not yet
An apple for serenity
A pendant for balance
Beads of jade for beauty
[Am]You must proudly show it
Now [F]add a cricket just for luck

[Verse 6]
And even you can't blow it
[Db]Ancestors hear my plea
Help me not to make a [Ab]fool of me
And to not my family tree
Keep my father stan[Bbm]ding t[Ab]all
[Eb]
[Ab]Scarier than the undertaker
[A]We are meeting our matchmaker

[Verse 7]
[D]Destiny, guard our girls
And our future as it [A]fast unfurls
Please look kindly on these cultured pearls
Each a perfect porce[Bm]lain [A]doll
[E]
[A]Please bring honor to us
(Please bring honor to us)
Please bring honor to us
(Please bring honor to us)
Please bring honor to us [D]all
