CAPO: 2nd Fret



Intro:
G  C  G  C

Verse 1:
G                       C
Mary, you're covered in roses
                  G                        D
You're covered in ashes, you're covered in rain
                  G                         C
You're covered in babies, you're covered in slashes
                  G                             D
You're covered in wilderness, you're covered in stains

Verse 2:
          G                         C
You cast aside the sheet, you cast aside the shroud
    G                                D
Of another man, who served the world proud
           G                     C
You greet another son, you lose another one
        G                        D     G
On some sunny day and always you stay, Mary


Chorus:
Em                    C                         G
Jesus says, "Mother I couldn't stay another day longer"
Em                       C             G
Flies right by, leaves a kiss upon her face
          Em                      C                     G
While the angels were singing his praises in a blaze of glory
     Am                                      C
Mary stays behind and starts cleaning up the place


Verse 3:
   G                 C
Oh Mary, she moves behind me
               G                 D
She leaves her fingerprints everywhere
               G                          C
Every time the snow drifts, every way the sand shifts
              G                         D
Even when the night lifts, she's always there


Chorus:
Em                    C                         G
Jesus says, "Mother I couldn't stay another day longer"
Em                       C             G
Flies right by, leaves a kiss upon her face
          Em                      C                     G
While the angels were singing his praises in a blaze of glory
     A7                                      C
Mary stays behind and starts cleaning up the place


Verse 4:
   G                       C
Oh Mary, you're covered in roses
                  G                       D
You're covered in ruin, you're covered in secrets
                  G                           C
You're covered in treetops, you're covered in birds
               G                         D
Who can sing a million songs without any words


Verse 5:
          G                          C
You cast aside the sheets, you cast aside the shroud
    G                                D
Of another man, who served the world proud
           G                     C
You greet another son, you lose another one
        G                        D
On some sunny day and always you stay
G     C   G
