Crazy Mary

Am
She lived on a curve in the road
F
In an old tar paper shack
Am                                    F
On the south side of the town on the wrong side of the tracks
C                G
Sometimes on the way into town
F                         F
We say 'Mama  can we stop and give her a ride?'
Am                 G             F             G
Sometimes we did  but her hands flew from her side
F            G        Am
Wild eyed... Crazy... Mary

F  Am [2X]

Am                      F
Down a long dirt road  past the Parson's place
Am                   F
Their old blue car  we used to race
C                     G
Little country store  with a sign tacked to the side
Am                           F
Said 'NO L-O-I-T-E-R-I-N-G ALLOWED'
Am                           F
Underneath that sign always congregated quite a crowd

Take a bottle  drink it down  pass it around     (3x)


A
One night thunder cracked  Mercy backed outside her windowsill
D
Dreamed I was flying high above the trees  over the hills
A
Looked down into the house of Mary
E                D
Terrible thought  newspaper covered walls
A
And Mary rising up above it all.....

Am
Next morning on the way into town
F
Saw some skid marks and followed them around
Am                         F                        Am
Over the curb through the fields into the house of Mary
G                           F
That what you fear the most will meet you half way  (2x)
