Mary

Key: FHard

FBFC

DBm

Oh FMary wasn't happy with the Elife that she led

She was a Fsimple girl without much to Esay

So one Fday she up and Eleft her dreary home

And she Fleft all her friends to Ewander all alone

And at Ffirst she was afraid, she was Cso far away

From her Fhome but slowly she got to Clike it anyway

Oh, DMary won't you please come

BmMary won't you please come

DMary won't you Cplease come

FEFE

FCFC

Well in Ftime she found that the Emountain that she had been tFaught

Her whole life, Ethat she must avoid

And Fthough at first it hurt, and no Eone could comfort her

She Ffinally came to apEpreciate it

And she Fliked it, she liked it - oh Cwasn't she surprised

And Fthough still alone, she Cgrew so much inside

Oh, DMary won't you please come

BmMary won't you please come

DMary won't you Cplease come

FEFE

FCFC

And Fafter a time, she beEcame so sublime

She could Flook in peoples eyes and Eread their minds

Though her Fhands would sometimes bleed and Eoccasionally

She would Flong for her past and the Ememories they bring

She deFcided to return to her Cold home town

And her Fheart was burning with Call the things she found

Oh, DMary won't you please come

BmMary won't you please come

DMary won't you Cplease come

Please come Fhome E F E

FEFE

FCFC

DBmC

So, FMary came back and at Efirst no one recognized her fFace

And her friends were all a Elittle bit afraid

When they Fheard what she had to say, they all Eslowly backed away

And her Ffamily took her aside and Eput their arms around her

They said FMary won't you please come Cback to us now

There is Fstill time to repent for Call your sins

And FMary started to cry Cwhen she realized

That she'd Fnever come home agCain in her life

Oh, DMary won't you please come

BmMary won't you please come

DMary won't you Cplease come

Please come Fhome E

FCome home E

Come Dhome Bm

Come Fhome E

Water

Key: C#mHard

C#m

F#m

Now everybodC#my tells me you're the dog's best friend

I'm the cat's Fmeow since I don't know when

I'm an instigC#mator from a dead man's town

So when did tFhe whole world turn upside down

When did you C#mchange your mind, when did you lose the juice

Now where'd yFou get your attitude

When did you C#mgive it away, what did the old man say

How many babiFes did you kick today

How many nighF#mts can the full moon shine

How many bottAles of water can you turn to wine

When the blooBd has flowed against the tides of time

And the waterC#m flows forever

Now I'm gonna build a boat, I'm gonna make it float

'Cause I'm setting the pace for a faraway place

Gonna set the sail, gonna catch some wind

And the big red sky's gonna be my only friend

With a boat for two, just me and you

You can be my teacher, I can teach you too

Gonna try a few things that I've never done

Maybe talk to the fishes, maybe have some fun

Maybe shake my pale fist at the angry stars

While I dance a jig under the eyes of Mars

When we get to an island were the walls have a bend

We can get down and dirty in our animal skins

And I'll stand with my thing hanging out in the wind

Where the water's sweet like honey

I've been feeling a chill from the east wind blew

It's been creeping up slow, have you felt it too?

Did you notice the look? Have you felt the feel?

Did it make you blush when the piggy squealed

Have you heard what they say, did you read the news

Said old man's coming home a-singin' them blues

Gonna whack your fanny, gona tan you hide

Make your ears turn red, make you run and cry

How many children gonna lose their minds

How many crying ghosts will be left behind

When the dead start walking and the full moon shines...

Now everybody scream to the heavens above

And everybody dance to the sounds of love

Won't you clack your teeth, won't you smack your hands

Won't you dig your little heads right out of the sand

Won't you jiggle your butt, won't you wave your arms

Won't you look like you just came off of the farm

Won't you stop your fighting for a second or two

Won't you help your neighbor, won't you do your due

Won't you taste the sugar, won't you eat that cake

Won't you get your ugly mug right out of my face

Won't you tell your brothers and your sisters tonight,

That you tasted the water and the water was right

Wont you taste the sugar, won't you dance the dance

Won't you wake up please, come on out of your trance

Everybody make believe that you've disappeared,

for a second or two, Gonna feel so queer,

and you left behind all your rage and fear

And it made you feel like water

Pictures Of You

Key: AmMedium

F/A

Adim

PAmictures of you, it's just pF/Aictures of you, through the bAmedroom door

With that F/Asly little grin, says you Amwant it some more

But there's pF/Aeople around, and they Amdon't look so nice

Tell me F/Awhy don't they move, this has hAmappened before

This has hAdimappened before, it's just pictures of you, Amin dCarkBnesAms Am

PAmictures of you, I'd been slF/Aeeping for hours, when you cAmame to my house

You'd been lF/Aost in a crowd, said you Amhad to get out

You were F/Acovered with tears and you Amsaid you were sad

So you Adimwanted to play, yes, you wanted to play

Well you F/Atouched me and smiled, as you Amlet yourself go

Oh, but F/Asomething was wrong, 'cause your tAmouch was so cold

Like you'd F/Abeen in the ground and you Amasked if you could stay

And I saidAdim no, it's just pictures of you,Am in dCarkBnesAms Am

PAmictures of you, in that F/Alovely white dress, oh your sAmkin was so white

With the F/Amoon in your eyes, on that cAmold winter night

When your F/Alips were so soft, that I thAmought they would melt

And the sF/Aound of your breath and the Amway that you felt

And I saidAdim yes, and I said yes

It's just F/Apictures of you with a kAmnife in your hand

With a rF/Aose in your teeth lying Amnude in the sand

It's just F/Apictures of you, standing hAmigh on a cliff

With the wF/Aind in your hair, and a sAmmile on your lips

And your F/Aeyes were so wild, when you stAmarted to laugh

Blending F/Ain with the wind, sounded jAmust like a scream

Why do Adimpictures of you, come to me when I dream, Amin daCrknBessAm Am

PAmictures of you, pAmictures of you, pAmictures of you
