Intro

Verse 1

Read it in the paper, marked the date on the wall

 To remind myself to celebrate the day I lose it all

 They made plans to be together. I made plans to be alone.

 She got a rock, I'm gettin' stoned.

Verse 2

 Damn right I've got objections, but it's awful too late now.

 Yea the cans are on the limo and the rice is on the ground.

 They're headed for the islands, but hell I'm already gone.

 She got a rock, I'm gettin' stoned

Chorus

 Here's to happy ever after, and here's to balls and chains.

Here's to all us haters of old lovers' new last names.

Here's to holdin' up and gettin' right where I belong.

 She got a rock, I'm gettin' stoned.

Verse 3

 Yea I knew that it was over when I heard those weddin' bells.

 That preacher was my jailer, now this bottle is my bail.

 So much for all that prayin' her I do would be I don't.

 She got a rock, I'm getting' stoned

Chorus

 Here's to happy ever after, and here's to balls and chains.

Here's to all us haters of old lovers' new last names.

Here's to holdin' up and gettin' right where I belong.

 She got a rock, I'm gettin' stoned.

Guitar solo

Tag:

 So to hell with her and him and that white horse they rode out on

 She got a rock, I'm gettin' stoned

 Yea she got a rock, Haha I'm gettin' stoned.
