Am                                                                 F 
          She lived on a curve in the road, 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 we'd say: 
           F 
          "Mama, can we stop and give her a ride?" 
Am                                       G                     F 
           Sometimes we did but her hands flew from her side 
F                                   G       Am 
           Wild eyed, crazy Mary 
 
F           G           Am 
 
Am                                               F 
           Down along the road, past the Parson's place 
Am                                   F 
           The old blue car we used to race 
C                      G                                 F 
           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 
 
 
Am                                               G           F 
           Take a bottle, drink it down           pass it around 
Am                                               G           F 
           Take a bottle, drink it down           pass it around 
Am                                               G           F 
           Take a bottle, drink it down           pass it around 
 
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 
Em                          E       D 
           Bare bulb blown, newspaper-covered walls 
A 
           and Mary rising up above it all 
 
A           D           A           D            
Ah.... 
A           A           G           A 
Ah... 
F           E 
Ah... 
 
Am 
           Next morning on the way into town 
F 
           Saw some skid marks, and followed them around 
Am                                                         F                                           Am    A 
           Over the curve,through the fields, into the house of Mary 
 
                                            G                                                       F 
           That WHAT you fear the most, could meet you halfway 
                                            G                                                       F 
           That WHAT you fear the most, could meet you halfway 
 
 
Am                                               G           F 
           Take a bottle, drink it down           pass it around 
Am                                               G           F 
           Take a bottle, drink it down           pass it around 
Am                                               G           F 
           Take a bottle, drink it down           pass it around
