Crazy Mary

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              A            G
  Sometimes we did, but her hands flew from her side
 G           A      Bm  G
Wild eyed, crazy Mary

( Bm  G  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

Bm
  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
               A                        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
