Bm        D        G        D
  Oh Mary, contrary how does your garden grow?

Bm             D             G            D
  Come with me, and you'll be the seventh maid in a row

Bm         D            G          D
  My answer was laughter soft as I lowered my head

Bm                D          G              D
  You're too late, I'm afraid this flower's already dead



Bm            D              G                D
    Resetting as I was with blossoms in full bloom (blossoms in full bloom)

Bm           D                G               D
    Never a chance to pause with magic to consume (magic to consume)

Bm           D                  G          F#m
    A shadow walked behind me offering his hand

         G             F#m
    But couldn't understand



He said

Bm             D             G            D
  Come with me, and you'll be the seventh maid in a row

Bm         D            G          D
  My answer was laughter soft as I lowered my head

Bm                D          G              D
  You're too late, I'm afraid this flower's already dead


(Bm D G F#m) x4


Bm             D             G             D
   Scattering petals down the road without an end (road without an end)

Bm             D             G                D
   Left on the battleground for one I called my friend (one I called my friend)

Bm           D           G                F#m
   Maybe he loved me as he took me by the hand

         G            F#m
   And tried to understand



I said
Bm        D        G        D
  Oh Mary, contrary how does your garden grow?

Bm             D           G            D
  Stay with me, I can't see anywhere that we could go

Bm            D            G          D
  Their answer was laughter as darkness swallowed them up

Bm              D             G              D
  One more time. I'll be fine, sometimes kindness is enough



C#m       E        A        E
  Oh Mary, contrary how does your garden grow?

C#m              E               A            E
  Don't leave me, please don't be the seventh maid in a row

C#m         E          A            E
  My answer, a whisper soft as he lowered his head

C#m            E         A            E
  Set him free. I'm sorry this flower's already dead
