St Marys chords by Joey Cape

Intro:
A    A


Verse:
A                      A
Why would you do that? Why would you do that?
F#            E              D
Why would you leave us for a song
A                         A
You know that we need you and we hardly see you
F#             E             D
You´ve already been gone too long, we


Pre-Chorus:
D     A    B   E   A
Sleep with one eye waiting for you, 'til
D    A     B     E    F#
Eyes close front door stumbling through
           D
You should know better now
        E
but you go anyhow

Chorus:
               A           F#
Could you have stayed home tonight
                A           F#
Should you have stayed home tonight
            D         E
Please just stay home tonight


Interlude:
A     A


Verse:
A                          A
I love you from a distance my green bottled mistress
F#            E            D
It may be the only constant
A                      A
A common law marriage, a spirited carriage
F#        E                   D
Momentum, moss and time spent lost


Pre-Chorus:
    D  A   B   E   A
St. Mary´s calling from down the street
  D    A    B E   F#
I feel warm chaos beckoning me
      D
If by dawn I´m not here
            E
I´ve bedded down under stairs


Outro:
            A           F#
Should have stayed home tonight
           A           F#
Would have stayed home tonight
          D         E       A
