[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]In the society section of the
Sunday paper
Saw a picture of him with
his arms around you
And with an invitation came
in yesterday's mail
I said to myself, self, this can't be true
[A]You looked so lovely on your daddy's arm as
he [C]walked down the aisle just to [G]give you away
I [A]couldn't help myself, well,
I had to do something
When I [C]heard what the preacher had [D]to say
He said, [G]if anybody here
can show just cause
Why I shouldn't be adjoining these two
Speak up now or forever hold your peace
Well, a man's gotta do what
a man's gotta do
[C]It's [D]times like these called
for desperate measures
[C]It's so hard to find [G]love these days
You gotta [D]get your hands dirty
You're digging for treasure
It's [F]times like these
[C]Called for desperate meas
[G]ures[D]
[C][G][D]
[F][C]
I [G]said, wait, [F]stop, [D]I l[G]ove you
Well, I can't let you marry for money
I can't let you throw your life away
Then you turned to him and you said,
I'm sorry
There won't be any I do's today
I took a [A]hold of your hand
and we took off running
[C]Out the door to my [G]truck outside
Your [A]daddy was cryin' and
your momma was singin'
A [C]rousing rendition of
There
[D]Goes the
Bride
You said, I [G]see you got [D]my in[G]vitation, girl
I'm real [D]glad [G]that you finally
came through
Cause momma's idea,
[D]hope you don[G]'t mind
What a girl's gotta do,
what a girl's gotta do
[C]Cause [D]times like these call for
desperate measures
[C]It's so hard to find [G]love these days
You gotta [D]get your hands dirty,
you're diggin' for treasure
Cuz' [F]times like these,
[C]call for desperate measure[G]s
Yeah, [D]times like these call for
desperate measures
[C]It's so hard to find [G]love these days
You gotta [D]get your hands dirty,
you're diggin' for treasure
Cuz' [Dm]times [F]like these,
[C]call for desperate measure[G]s
Yeah, [F]times like these,
[C]it's when we sho[G]uld use
