Along Comes Mary Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Am][D][D]
[Am][D][Am][D]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Every time I think that
I'm the [D]only one who's lonely
Some[Am]one calls [D]on me
And [Am]every now and then
I spend my [D]time in rhyme and verse
And curse [Am]those faults in [D]me

[Chorus 1]
And then a[E]long comes [A]Mary[E][A]
And does she [E]want to give me kicks,
[A]and be my steady [E]chick
And give me [A]pick of memo[E]ries[A][D][G]
[B]Or maybe rat[E]her gather tal[B]es of all the fai[E]ls
and tribu[B]lations
[E]No one ever [A]sees
When we [Dm]met I was [Em]sure o[F]ut to lunch
Now my empty [Dm]cup tastes
as [D]sweet as the punch

[Interlude 1]
[Am][D][Am][D]

[Verse 2]
When vague de[Am]sire is the fire
in the [D]eyes of chicks
Whose sickness is the [Am]games they [D]play
And when the [Am]masquerade is played
and neighbor [D]folks make jokes
As who is most [Am]to blame toda[D]y

[Chorus 2]
And then a[E]long comes [A]Mary[E][A]
And does she [E]want to give me [A]free,
and let them see [E]reality
From [A]where she got her [E]name[A][D][G]
[B]And will they str[E]uggle much
when [B]told that such a [E]tender touch as [B]hers
Will [E]make them not the [A]same
When we [Dm]met I was [Em]sure o[F]ut to lunch
Now my empty [Dm]cup tastes
as [D]sweet as the punch
[Am][D][Am][D]

[Interlude 2]
[Am][Am][D][D]
[Am][D][Am][D]

[Verse 3]
And when the [Am]morning
of the warning's [D]passed, the gassed
And flaccid kids are flung a[Am]cross the [D]stars
The psycho[Am]dramas and the traumas gone
[D]The songs are left unsung
and hung u[Am]pon the [D]scars

[Chorus 3]
And then a[E]long comes [A]Mary[E][A]
And does she [E]want to see the [A]stains,
the dead remains of [E]all the pains
She [A]left the night be[E]fore[A][D][G]
[B]Or will their wak[E]ing eyes
re[B]flect the lies, and [E]make them rea[B]lize
their [E]urgent cry for [A]sight no more
When we [Dm]met I was [Em]sure o[F]ut to lunch
Now my empty [Dm]cup tastes
as [D]sweet as the punch

[Outro 1]
[Am][D]
Sweet as the [Am]punch[D]
Sweet as the [Am]punch[D]
Sweet as the [Am]punch[D]
Sweet as the [Am]punch
