Verse 1:
D MajorD
Black Mary bless your heart
E minorEm
Born at the end of an age
G+G
When the punk girls fake all their grit
A augmentedA
And they love in the very same way
D MajorD
But you were their jack knife queen
E minorEm
Ransacked and agonized
G+G
By the virgin boys and their rabid swing
A augmentedA
They scratch at your door in the dead of night
A7A7
Foaming at the mouth screaming take a sight
Chorus:
E minorEm
Or just leave
A augmentedA
But she can't turn down a nice little kiss from a fool like me
E minorEm
She's a thief
A augmentedA
She stole every white blood, wet-dream wandering eye
A7A7
The boys fail to keep her every time they try

Verse 2:
D MajorD
Black Mary what's it like
E minorEm
To dive in deep with the dead
G+G
To curse the fools and their whiskey jive
A augmentedA
To join in on what you resent
D MajorD
The church says you've gone insane
E minorEm
The nurse says you've gotta get out
G+G
But you're stuck inside where you pray for rain
A augmentedA
You watch at your window at a heavy cloud
A7A7
But nothing ever falls in your lovesick drought
Chorus:
E minorEm
So it seems
A augmentedA
But she can't turn down a nice little kiss from a fool like him
E minorEm
She's a thief
A augmentedA
She stole every white blood, wet-dream wandering eye
A7A7
The boys fail to keep her every time they try
E minorEm
(wandering eyes, wandering eyes)
A augmentedA
She stole every white blood, wet-dream wandering eye
E minorEm
(wandering eyes, wandering eyes)
A augmentedA
She takes what she gets when she leaves what she finds
E minorEm
(wandering eyes, wandering eyes)
A augmentedA
She stole every white blood, wet-dream wandering eye
A7A7
The boys fail to keep her every time they try
