You Never Can Tell Cest La Vie chords

F    Bb

Bb
It was a teenage wedding
Bb
And the old folks wished them well
Bb
You could see that Pierre
                          F
Did truly love the mademoiselle
F
And now the young monsieur and madame
F
Have rung the chapel bell
F
"C'est la vie", say the old folks
                              Bb
It goes to show you never can tell

Bb
They furnished off an apartment
Bb
With a two room Roebuck sale
Bb
The coolerator was crammed
                             F
With T.V. dinners and ginger ale
F
But when Pierre found work
F
The little money coming worked out well
F
"C'est la vie", say the old folks
                              Bb
It goes to show you never can tell

Bb
They had a hi-fi phono
Bb
Boy, did they let it blast
Bb
Seven hundred little records
                       F
All rocking rhythm and jazz
F
But when the sun went down
F
The rapid tempo of the music fell
F
"C'est la vie", say the old folks
                              Bb
It goes to show you never can tell

Bb    F     Bb

Bb
They bought a souped-up jitney
Bb
It was a cherry-red '53
Bb
They drove it down to New Orleans
                            F
To celebrate their anniversary
F
It was there that Pierre

Was wedded to the lovely mademoiselle
F
"C'est la vie", say the old folks
                              Bb
It goes to show you never can tell

Bb
It was a teenage wedding
Bb

                          F
Did truly love the mademoiselle

And now the young monsieur and madame
