Cover of Victoria Williams' "Crazy Mary"
[Verse]
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 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 F
wild eyed...crazy...Mary
[Verse]
Am F
down a long dirt road past the Parson's place
Am F
their old blue car we used to race
C G F
a 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
[Chorus]
Am G F G
take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around, pass it a
Am G F G
take a bottle, drink it down, pass it a, pass it a, pass it around
[Bridge]
A
one night the 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
E D
bare bulb on, newspaper covered walls
A
and Mary rising up, above it all
A D A D A A G F#m F E
ah...... ah......
[Verse]
Am
next morning on the way into town
F
we saw some skid marks and followed them around
Am F Am
over the curb, through the fields, into the house of Mary
[Bridge]
G F
that what you fear the most will meet you half way
G F
that what you fear the most will meet you half way
[Chorus]
Am G F G
take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around, pass it a
Am G F G
take a bottle, drink it down, pass it a, pass it a, pass it around
