G                              C    
Mary, oh Mary how many times I call
D
No, I don't want anything
       C                        G    
But to know you're there that's all
G
You're an angel sent by accident
                   C
To ease my worried mind
G       G/F#           Em         D
And I don't show you half enough
          A     D        G
But I love you all the time

G                                 C 
Mary, oh Mary where does the time go?
D
First I hated being young
         C              G   
Now I'm scared of being old
G
So I decided to stop wearing a watch
                     C 
So I don't hear time pass
G        G/F#      Em   D      
I did it half an hour ago
          A   D         G   
So we'll see how long I last

G                                C
Mary, oh Mary I'm feeling fairly bad
D
Problems running through my head
       C      G
Like a broken phonograph
G                                          
Won't you pack my things, give the Doc a ring
C
Let him make me a bed
G       G/F#      Em                D
Let the man come round Who ties me down
    A     D           G
And hooks wires to my head

[Bridge]
D                           
I was born one rainy morn
      C                  G
So not much changed for me
D
Just a bigger bed and a feeling that
    C             D     
I'd gotten in too deep

G                             C   
Mary, oh Mary keep my picture hung
D 
I played death for cigarettes
            C            G
And got the cancer in my lungs
G
Tell every one of my grandsons
                 C 
Exactly what I did
G        G/F#       Em                D
Spent my whole life waiting for this time
A      D      G      
That I hardly lived
