I Miss My Mary chords and lyrics - HAL KETCHUM

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]A t[C]hreadbare alibi.....a lifetime
full of [G]promise
Fell from my Mary's eyes as she
saw the screen door [D]swing
[C]The baby [G]never woke......he lay
[Em]cradled in her [C]trem[G]bling
He lay safe and never [C]knowing
what my [D]leavin [G]would bring

[Verse 2]
[G]I draw my pay down on [C]the
docks.....I send it off [G]to Mary
I might hold back a dollar to wash this
pain out of my [D]back
[C]But the pain keeps getting [G]clearer and
Mary your [Em]face just keeps on [C]fading
[G]Now the light shines through thi[C]s
[D]bottle....memories all fade to black
[G]

[Verse 3]
(Chorus)
Well I'll [C]see you out on
the street tonight
I'm [G]a lover of a drink, a lover of a fight
[C]Hold my own on the dark side of this [G]town
Yes, I'm [C]tough as nails, got a heart of steel
I will [G]never fear, for I will never [Em]feel
And [C]one more round would
surely set me [D]right
I miss my Mary [G]tonight

[Verse 4]
[G]They [C]cal[D]l m[G]e the old man in this bar,[C]
sleeves rolled up and [G]showin
Faint blue souvenirs of love
and places I have [D]been
One [C]says
