  Our love is looking promising,                   1    1
  you got me thinking wedding ring,                4    4
  and being yours                                  1    1
   forevermore.                                    5    5

  But seeing as how the best-laid plans            1    1
    between a woman and a man                      4    4
  can fall apart,                                  1    5
  why don't we start                               1    17
 
Chorus:
     our honeymoon first,                          4    4
      so whatever comes,                           1    1
         we can be sure                            5    5
         we've had fun.                            1    17
    Love never can be                              4    4
       a total waste                               1    1
         when lovers take                          5    5aug
     the honeymoon first.                          1    17

  I'm looking toward that happy time
 your family is also mine
  and your loved ones
      call me "son".
  But much can happen up til then,
 they might hate me, I might hate them,
   So dear lover, let's
      cover our bets.

Chorus:
   Let's honeymoon first,                          4    4
    then whatever comes,                           1    1
         we can be sure                            5    5
         we had our fun.                           1    17
    Love never can be                              4    4
       a total waste                               1    1
         when lovers take                          5    5aug
     the honeymoon first.                          1    17

Bridge:
If the unexpected happens, and                     47   47
         good love goes bad,                       6m   6m
      imagine all the happiness                    2    2
    we still will have had                         5    57
Chorus:
  on the honeymoon first,                          47   47
         then if love sours,                       1    1
         we can be sure                            5    5
         we got ours.                              1    17
    Fair memories                                  4    4
         can't be erased.                          6m   6m7
    Fate never can cheat                           5
     the couple who takes                          4
     the honeymoon first.                          1    1
   Yeah, life is sweet                             5
 for the couple who takes                          4
     the honeymoon first.                          1    1
