Taylor Swift – Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)

|G     |G     |

|G                   |D/F#               |Am                    |C                  |
 I am not the kind of girl, who should be rudely barging in on a white-veil occasion
   |G                      |D/F#              |Am                |C   |
But you are not the kind of boy, who should be marrying the wrong girl

|G                      |D/F#            |Am                      |C                |
 I sneak in and see your friends, and her snotty little family all dressed in pastel
   |G                  |D/F#      |
And she is yelling at a bridesmaid
         |Am                           |C                        |
Somewhere back inside a room, wearing a gown shaped like a pastry

|Am   |C   |G                                   |D/F#   |
 This  is   surely not what you thought it would be
|Am   |C                 |D       |D                  |
 I       lose myself in a daydream,  where I stand and

|G                  |D/F#              |Am                             |C                 |
 say, don’t say yes, run away now, I’ll meet you when you're out of the church at the back
|G                  |D/F#                 |Am                           |C                |
 door, don’t wait or say a single vow, you need to hear me out, and they said, "Speak now"

|G     |D/F#     |Am     |C     |

|G                  |D/F#   |
 Fond gestures are exchanged
       |Am                              |C                        |
And the organ starts to play a song that sounds like a death march
   |G                 |D/F#                   |Am                     |C                 |
And I am hiding in the curtains, it seems that I was uninvited by your lovely bride-to-be

|Am   |C                           |G            |D/F#   |
 She   floats down the aisle like a pageant queen
   |Am   |C       |D                  |D                         |
But I     know you wish it was me, you wish it was me, don't you?

|G               |D/F#              |Am                             |C                 |
   Don't say yes, run away now, I’ll meet you when you're out of the church at the back
|G                  |D/F#                 |Am                           |C                |
 door, don’t wait or say a single vow, you need to hear me out, and they said, "Speak now"
|G               |D/F#                       |
   Don't say yes, run away now (run away now)
    |Am                             |C                 |
I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back
|G                   |D/F#                               |
 door, don’t wait, or say a single vow (say a single vow)
    |Am                           |C                |
Your time is running out, and they said, "Speak now"

|G   |D/F#          |Am   |C   |
      Ooh (run away) now
|G   |D/F#                   |Am   |C   |
      Ooh (say a single vow), ooh

|Em                       |C                   |G        |D     |
 I hear the preacher say, "Speak now or forever hold your peace"
|Am                                          |C                               |D      |D   |
 There's the silence, there's my last chance, I stand up with shaky hands, all eyes on me
|Am                  |C                        |D                  |D   |
 Horrified looks from everyone in the room, but I'm only looking at you

|G                   |D/F#               |Am                    |C                  |
 I am not the kind of girl, who should be rudely barging in on a white-veil occasion
   |G                      |D/F#              |Am                |C   |
But you are not the kind of boy, who should be marrying the wrong girl

|G                  |D/F#              |Am                             |C                 |
   So don't say yes, run away now, I’ll meet you when you're out of the church at the back
|G                  |D/F#                 |Am                       |C           |
 door, don’t wait or say a single vow, you need to hear me out, they said, “Speak
|G                       |D/F#                       |
 now”, you'll say, "Let's run away now (run away now)
    |Am                         |C              |
I'll meet you when I'm out of my tux at the back
|G            |D/F#                                 |
 door, baby, I didn't say my vows (say a single vow)
  |Am                            |C                |
So glad you were around when they said, 'Speak now’

|G     |
