[Intro 1]
[Bm][C][Gm][C][D][Esus4][Am]
[Bb][Gm]

[Verse 1]
Oh [Bm]Mary
was unhappy with [C]the life that she led
She was a sim[Bm]ple girl
without much to [C]say
So one [Bm]day she upped and
[C]left her dreary home
And [Bm]she left all her friends
[C]to wander all alone
And [D]at first she was afraid,
she [Am]was so far away
From [D]her home but slowly she
got to [Am]like it anyway

[Verse 2]
Oh [Bb]Mary won't you please come
[Gm]Mary won't you please come
[Ab]Mary won't you please

[Interlude 1]
come

[C]

[Verse 3]
Well [Bm]in time she [D]found
That [C]mountain that she had
been [Bm]taught
Her whole life, that [C]she must avoid
[Am]And thou[Bm]gh at first it h[D]urt,
and no [C]one could comfort her
She fi[Bm]nally came to ap[C]preciate [Am]it
And she [D]liked it,
she liked it- -oh [Am]wasn't she surprised
And [D]though still alone,
she [Am]grew so much inside

[Verse 4]
Oh [Bb]Mary won't you please come
[Gm]Mary won't you please come
[Bb]Mary won't you [Ab]please come

[Interlude 2]

[Bm][C][Am][C][D]
[Am][D][Am]

[Verse 5]
And [Bm]after a [D]time,
[Bm]she be[C]came so sublime
She could look [Bm]in people's
eyes and [C]read their minds
Though [Bm]her hands would sometimes
bleed and oc[C]casionally
She [Bm]would long for her past
[D]and the mem[C]ories they bring
She de[D]cided to return to
her [Am]old home town
And [D]her heart was burning
[Am]with all the things she found

[Verse 6]
Oh [Bb]Mary won't you please come
[Gm]Mary won't you please come
[Bb]Mary won't you [Ab]please come
Please [Bm]come [D]home

[Bm]So

[Verse 7]
Mary came back and [C]at first
no one recognized [Bm]her face
And her friends were all a
[C]little bit afraid
When they [Bm]heard what she had to say
They [C]all slowly backed away
And [Bm]her family took her aside and
[C]put their arms around her
They said:
[D]Mary, won't you please
come [Am]back to us now
There [D]is still time to repent
for [Am]all your sins
And [D]Mary started to cry
[Am]when she realized
That she'd [D]never come home
[Am]again in her life

[Verse 8]
Oh [Bb]Mary won't you please come
[Gm]Mary won't you please come
[Bb]Mary [Ab]won't you please come
Please come [Bm]home[C]
Come [D]home, yeah [Am]yeah yeah
Come [Bb]home, [Gm]home
Come [Bm]home, yeah [C]yeah yeah
Come [D]home, yeah [Am]yeah yeah
Come [Bb]home, [Gm]home
Come [Bm]home, yeah yeah [C]yeah
Come [D]home, yeah yeah yeah

[Am]Yeah yeah yeah, [D]yeah yeah....
