David Allan Coe - Crazy Mary
Capo 1

Intro:
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA

Chorus:
D MajorD
Crazy Mary from London Berry
C#C#
Lives next door to the cemetery
C majorC
How many lovers have you buried
G+G
We would shout, running scared
D MajorD     C#C#    BB
Along the green and golden paths
   A augmentedA       C majorC     C#C#  D MajorD  A augmentedA
That took us home, away from Crazy Mary.

D MajorD
In the lamplight burning low
C#C#
Dimly through enchanted woods
C majorC
She rocks beside the fire that never was lit
G+G        D MajorD C#C# BB
And as we ran on by
         A augmentedA
Pretending to be frightened
               D MajorD  A augmentedA
We'd shout and laugh at Crazy Mary.

D MajorD
She would never answer us
C#C#
Smiled through the window softly
C majorC
Wild-eyed and wild-haired but we were sure
G+G          D MajorD
That in the dark of night
  C#C#    BB        A augmentedA
She cursed us soundly, casting spells
          C#C#  D MajorD
And such to turn us into donkeys.

Chorus:
D MajorD
So it seems that older now
C#C#
We stand upon this wind-swept moor
C majorC
The lonely grave before us
G+G                  D MajorD   C#C# BB
Testifies that Crazy Mary sings and dreams
  BB
He dreams somewhere
  A augmentedA        C majorC    C#C#   D MajorD   A augmentedA
But not where little kids can follow after
D MajorD
And on the stone, these words, dear friend
C#C#
Please write me down as one who loved
C majorC
The raven-haired and laughing lads
G+G
That swore that they would marry me
  D MajorD     C#C#        C majorC
And soon their sons came running by
              C#C#  D MajorD   A augmentedA
And here I lie, forgotten, Crazy Mary.

Chorus:
