Chords with lyrics
- Capo on 4th
- Difficulty: Beginner
Key: A minorAm
A minorAm E minorEm
A minorAm E minorEm
A minorAm E minorEm
The frost outside melted by my lonesome cigarette
Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5
And the burning thoughts parade my mind of the night that we first met
A minorAm E minorEm
Oh mary mary mary how I love the thought of you
Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5
And I’m high off the pain and the sleepless nights you put me through
A minorAm E minorEm
As if a distant echo spoke to me through sleeting rain
Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5
The image of your face is something now I face again
A minorAm E minorEm
And the taste of cheap champagne and I couldn’t wait to take you home
Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5
Toss and turn in bed each night, cause now I sleep alone
A minorAm E minorEm Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5
Oh mary mary mary please, come back to me
A minorAm E minorEm
A minorAm E minorEm
A minorAm E minorEm Fmaj7Fmaj7
Praying’s not my strongsuit, but I don’t have much to hold onto otherwise
G5G5
Besides your eyes
A minorAm E minorEm
In a deep dark sleep I’m dreaming of you calling out my name
Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5 A minorAm E minorEm Fmaj7Fmaj7
But it just don’t sound the same, as it sounded here with me, oh mary woah woah woah
G5G5 A minorAm E minorEm Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5
Oh mary
A minorAm E minorEm
Your heart in part with those brown eyes was a match I’d wished i’d meet
Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5
From the moment that you spoke I knew you’d be a part of me
A minorAm E minorEm
We took a drive in my ‘99 and I showed you the heart you held
Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5
And In my head I swore to you until God’s final bell
A minorAm E minorEm
We hitched up quick and settled in a ditch just south of 36
Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5
You held to me so tightly and you swore you’d never quit
A minorAm E minorEm
And with my strong arms and your strong heart we kept our place in life
Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5
Babe I swear I can’t forget all the days you were my why,
A minorAm E minorEm Fmaj7Fmaj7
Oh Mary, Mary Mary, please
G5G5
Come back to me
(guitar solo)
FF G+G A minorAm
Mary if you’re out there listen to my solemn words
A minorAm G+G FF
I’ll find the man who drove that night and took you from this Earth
FF G+G A minorAm
And he won’t leave so easily as he did to you that day
A minorAm G+G Fmaj7Fmaj7
'Cause mary in that moment he took the best thing God ever gave me'
A minorAm E minorEm
So I rest my head here gently on the tombstone of your grave
Fmaj7Fmaj7 G5G5
And fondly I remember all the love you never gave
A minorAm E minorEm
Cause Mary you had changed my life and made all the work worthwhile
Fmaj7Fmaj7
And with every waking breath now I am haunted by your smile
A minorAm
