<< Back to Ella Fitzgerald Song List

Version 1

            ok i think these chords are right i've never listened to the song but my english
teacher gave me the chords below (he wrote them down by listening to the song)

[Verse 1]
=======

        F              C7
Another bride, another June
        F    F7     Bb   Bbm
Another sunny  honeymoon
        F               C#7    C7
Another season, another reason
           F        C7
For makin' whoopee

[Verse 2]
(like 1st verse)
========================

A lot of shoes, a lot of rice
The groom is nervous, he answers twice
Ain't it thrillin'
That he's so willin' for makin' whoopee

[Verse 3]
=======

F7               Gm
Picture a little love nest
Bbm                  F
Down where the roses cling
F7                     Gm
Picture the same sweet love nest
Bbm                 F
See what a year can bring

[Verse 4]
(like 1st verse)
========================

He's washin dishes and baby clothes
He's so ambitious he even sews
But don't forget folks,
Thats what you get folks, for makin' whoopee

[Verse 5]
(like 1st verse)
========================

Another year, maybe less
What's this I hear? Well, can't you guess?
She feels neglected, and he's suspected
Of makin' whoopee

[Verse 6]
(like 1st verse)
========================

She sits alone,
Most every night
He doesn't phone, he doesn't write
He says he's busy,
But she says, "Is he?"
He's makin' whoopee

[Verse 7]
(like 3rd verse)
========================

Now he doesn't make much money
Only five thousand per
Some judge who thinks he's funny
Says, "You'll pay six to her."

[Verse 8]
(like 1st verse)
========================

He says, "Now judge, suppose I fail?"
Judge say, "Budge. Right into jail.
You'd better keep her. I think it's cheaper
Than makin' whoopee."

      F               
Yeah, you better keep her
             C#7     C7
I think it's cheaper
            F          C7
Then makin' whoopee

End Chord: F
