Art Garfunkel - Mary Was an Only Child


INTRO: E minorEm

 D MajorD G+G  D MajorD G+G C majorC G+G   B minorBm
Mary was an only child
G+G         D MajorD  D7D7
Nobody held her, nobody smiled
    E minorEm               B7B7
She was born in a trailer, wretched and poor
    E minorEm      A minorAm    E minorEm    B7B7  E minorEm
And she shone like a gem in a five-and-dime store

   E minorEm A minorAm E minorEm B7B7 E minorEm

 D MajorD G+G  D MajorD G+G    C majorC G+G  B minorBm
Mary had no friends at all
G+G              D MajorD  D7D7
Just famous faces pinned to the wall
E minorEm                  B7B7
All of them watched her, none of them saw
     E minorEm      A minorAm    E minorEm    B7B7  E minorEm
That she shone like a gem in a five-and-dime store

D MajorD  G+G D MajorD  G+G        C majorC G+G   B minorBm
And if you watch the stars at night
    G+G           D MajorD D7D7
And you find them shining equally bright
  E minorEm                         B7B7
You might have seen Jesus, and not have known what you saw
     E minorEm    A minorAm    E minorEm    B7B7  E minorEm
Who would notice a gem in a five-and-dime store?
