Mary Anne, do you remember
Am
the tree by the river
G
when we were seventeen?
C7
Dark canyon wall, the call and the answer
Am
and the mare in the pasture
G
pitch black and baring its teeth.

C7
I recall the sun in our faces,
Am
stuck and leaning on braces,
G
and being strangers to change.
C7
Radio and the bones we found frozen,
Am
and all the thorns and the roses
G
beneath your window pane.
G
Now Im asleep in a car, I mean the world
Am
to a potty-mouth girl,
G
a pretty pair of blue-eyed birds.
G
Time isnt kind or unkind, you liked to say.
Am
But I wonder to who
G
what it is youre saying today.

Dark canyon road, I was coy in the half-moon;
Am
happy just to be with you,
G
and you were happy for me.
