[Verse]
F
Burn up with the water
F
The floods are on the plains
F
The planets in a rose
F
Who knows what they contain?
F
And my brain is like an orchestra
F
Playing on, insane
F
Will you love me like you loved me in the January rain?
F
[Verse]
F
Mom and Dad and violins
Bb F
Somber country silence
The needle stopped the kicking
C
The clothes pins on the floor
F
And my heart is playing hide and seek
Bb F
Wait and count to four
C Bb F
Will you love me like you loved me and I'll never ask for more
[Chorus]
Bb
What did you tell me Mary
When you were there so sweet and very
F
Full of field and stars
You carried all of time
C
Oh and, heavens, when you looked at me
Your eyes were like machinery
F
Your hands were making artifacts in the corner of my mind
[Chorus]
Bb
Monastery monochrome
Boom balloon machine and oh
F
Diamond rings and gutter bones
Marching up the mountain
Bb
With our aching planning
High and smiling
Cheap drink
Dark and violent
F
Full of butterflies
The violent tenderness
The sweet asylum
C
The clay you find is fortified
We felt unfocused fade the line
F
The sugar rush
The constant hush
The pushing of the water gush
Bb
The marching band
When April ran
F
May June bugs fly and
C
Push your gin Jacob
With the tired wiry brandy look
Bb F
Here we go round Mary in your famous story book
[Verse]
F
We overcome the sirens
Bb F
We look both left and right
C
And I can feel the numbness accompany my plight
F
And I know that someday soon I'll see you
Bb F
But now you're out of sight
C Bb F
And you'll kiss me like you used to in the January night
[Chorus]
Bb
What did you tell me Mary
When you were there so sweet and very
F
Full of field and stars
You carried all of time
C
Oh and, heavens, when you looked at me
Your eyes were like machinery
F
Your hands were making artifacts in the corner of my mind
Bb
Monastery monochrome
Boom balloon machine and oh
F
Diamond rings and gutter bones

Full of butterflies
