Crazy Mary

Tom: A

 Bm                                  G
She lived on the curve in the road,  in an old tar-paper shack
 Bm                                 G
On the south side of the town on know wrong side of the tracks
 D                 A                      G
Sometimes on the way into town we'd say Mama, can we stop and give her a ride?'
 Bm            G
Sometimes we did, but her hands flew from her side
 G          A     Bm   G
Wild eyed, crazy Mary

( Bm  G )

 Bm                      G
Down a long dirty road, past the Parson's place
 Bm                G
That old blue car we used to race
 D      A                  G
Little country store with a sign tacked to the side
        Bm                          G
Said 'No L-O-I-T-E-R-I-N-G Allowed'
 Bm                                      G
Underneath that sign always congregated  quite a crowd
 Bm             A              G              A
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
 Bm             A              G              A
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
 Bm             A              G              A   Bm
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around

 B
One night thunder cracked, mercy backed outside her windowsill
 E
Dreamed I was flying high above the trees, over the hills
 B
Looked down into the house of Mary
 F#                  E
A bare bulb on, newspaper-covered walls,
 B
and Mary rising up above it all
 B       E
Ohhh      Ohhh
 B       E
Ohhh      Ohhh
 B
Oooohhhhhh
 A   G#m   G      F#
Ohhh  Ohhh   Ohhh   Ohhh
 Bm
Next morning on the way into town
 G
Saw some skid marks and followed them around
 Bm              G                                     Bm
Over the curve, through the fields, into the house of  Mary
           A                   G
That what  you fear the most, could meet you halfway
           F                   G
That what  you fear the most, could meet you halfway
 Bm             A              G              A
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
 Bm             A              G              A
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
 Bm             A              G              A
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
