[Verse 1]
[D]Baby's got no job,
[Bm]baby's got no soul
She got [G]three kids,
[D]three men [A]keepin' her alive
[G]She don't [D]need to make
[A]money to survive
[D]She's got a real nice place,
[Bm]much better than mine
I've been [G]workin' my [D]hands
just [A]tryin' to survive
[G]I don't k[D]now if I'll g[A]et out alive
[G]I know it ain't her f[D]ault,
but it sure [A]ain't mine
[G]She'll see me hangin'
[D]around in the red [A]line
[D]Maybe you always [Bm]come first
Live like [G]a queen,
like there's [D]no one else [A]around
May[D]be you always [Bm]come first
While we're [G]struggling
And I'm just [D]trying to make [A]ends [D]meet
She had a real good plan, you know
[Bm]She's well packed up
and ready to go, yeah
[G]She met a [D]man, she was [A]only 18
[G]He fed her [D]lies,
said he'd [A]make her his queen
[D]Now she's living all depressed and alone
[Bm]She only lives about a mile
from her childhood [G]home
[D]Her mother [A]don't even wanna know
[G]Yea[D]h, she[A] don't wanna know
[G]I know it ain't her f[D]ault,
but it sure [A]ain't mine
[G]She'll see me hanging
[D]around in the red [A]light
[D]Mary, you always [Bm]come first
Live like [G]a queen
Like there's [D]no one else [A]around
[D]Mary, you always [Bm]come first
While we're [G]struggling
And I'm just [D]trying to make [A]ends meet
[Bm][A][D][G][D][A][Bm][A][D][G][D][A]
She's been [Bm]tied [A]down a [D]long time,
but she [G]just [D]won't lea[A]ve
She got no time for educa[D]tion,
she ain't got [G]time [D]for better [A]days
[Bm][A][G][D]
[A][Bm][A][D][A][G][A]
[D]Mary, you always [Bm]come first
Live like [G]a queen,
like there's [D]no one else [A]around
[D]Mary, you always [Bm]come first
While we're [G]struggling
And I'm just [D]trying to
make [A]ends [G]meet
Yeah, I'm just [D]trying to
make [A]ends [G]meet[D][A]
