Mary Called Him Mister

Written by Colin Buchanan/Lee Kernaghan/Tania Kernaghan/Henry Lawson

	  		INTRO: 	 C  F  x2 
 
V1 
         C                        F 
They parted but a year before she never thought he?d come 
     G                                      F 
She stammered blushed held out her hand and called him  
       C 
Mister Gum 
                                         F 
How could he know that all the while she longed to murmur  
 
John? 
                      C               G                   C 
He called her Miss Le Brook and asked how she was getting on 
 
V2 
C                                  F 
They parted but a year before they loved each other well 
      G                          F                C 
But he?d been to the city and he came back such a swell 
                                        F 
They longed to meet in fond embrace they hungered for a kiss 
                    C              G                   C 
But Mary called him Mister and the farm boy called her Miss 
 
TA: 	 (OOH)  F  C  G  C 
 
V3 
    C                                  F 
He stood and leaned against the door a stupid chap was he 
    G                                  F             C 
And when she asked if he?d come in and have a cup of tea 
                                         F 
He looked to left he looked to right and then he glanced  
 
behind 
                       C              G              C    C7 
And slowly doffed that hat of his and said he didn?t mind 
 
V4 
       F              C                    F               
She glanced at him at times and coughed an awkward little  
C 
cough 
      F           C                               G 
He stared at anything but her and said I must be off 
     F               C              F              Am 
That evening he went riding north a sad and lonely ride 
           F           C                                   She locked herself inside her room and sat down there and  
G 
cried 
 
TA: 	 C  F  C  F 
 
V5 
     C                             F 
They parted but a year before they loved each other well 
    G                               F               C 
But she was such a country girl and he was such a swell 
                                        F  
They longed to meet in fond embrace they hungered for a kiss 
                    C              G                   C  But Mary called him Mister and the farm boy called her Miss 
F                C                G/                  C     
Mary called him Mister?.. and the farm boy called her Miss 
F  C  F  C
