about

Harvey used to live a few doors down from the chapel on Broadway Street near the 'Gabba in Brisbane. Sometimes we would work on songs there together and if it was a Saturday, there would always be a wedding party happening just up the street.
It got me thinking that maybe some folks might have celebrated the most important moments of their lives in that little wooden church - getting born, getting married and maybe even getting together for that last long goodbye.
You know it's all over in the blink of an eye, so hold on to the one you love and keep them satisfied - Al

lyrics

Down at the chapel
Someone’s signing their life away
In front of all their family and friends
They’ll be asked to say
Do you take, none other to have and to hold
Give them everything you have
Whether you’re rich or poor

And I said yes, I do
Yes I do, everyday

Down at the chapel
Folks are getting down on their knees
Looking for salvation
And making their apologies
But you don't need, to keep searching
When you already got what you need
So now I'm asking, in Love do you believe

And I said yes, I do
Yes I do, everyday

Down at the chapel
There's a hole in the ground
A name of somebody etched in the stone
With the dates for lost and found
And you know it's all over, oh in the blink of an eye
So hold on to the one you love
And keep them satisfied

And I said yes, I do
Yes I do, everyday
And I said yes, I do
Yes I do, everyday
