Po-tatoes are cheaper
Tomatoes are cheaper
                          G7
Now's the time to fall in love

The butcher the baker,
The candlestick maker
                            C
Gave their price a downward shove

          C7                                F
Grab your-self someone to fry your eggs and bacon
        D7                                    G7    G+
She can live just like a queen on what you're makin'

You'll find a marriage is cheap-er

Now's the time to fall in love

You're gonna get a heap

       C     G7
Listen to it.

C             G7
Why be single when the price
   C     Cdim   C
Of matri-mony’s cheap
Dbdim G
Every-body
D7       G7   G+
Ought to do it

Chorus 2:

   C
Bo-lognas are cheaper
Kimonos are cheaper
                          G7
Now's the time to fall in love

Bananas are bargains
Pianos are bargains
                          C
You should take advantage of

        C7                          F
You can pay a little, owe a little, maybe
        D7                          G7
You can even start to think about a baby

       Dm7  G7   C                   C7
You'll find that bibs are much cheap-er
    Dm
And cribs are much cheaper

Chorus 3:

      C
Since Rudy got married
There's no use in waiting
                          G7
Now's the time to fall in love

Just tell your baloney
To get mega-phoney
                       C
And to coo just like a dove

       C7                               F
In the parlor after midnight while your spooning
           D7                                G7      G+
Close your eyes and make believe it's Vallee crooning

    Dm  G7  C              C7
You may dis-cover your cut-ie
      Dm
Sings better than Rudy
D7                G7      C    CdimC6
Now's the time to fall in love.
