Intro G  C  Am  G 

G                     C 
Mary Anne, do you remember 
                Am 
The tree by the river 
                  G 
When we were seventeen? 

G                                     C 
Dark canyon wall, the call and the answer 
                     Am 
And the mare in the pasture 
                             G 
Pitch black and baring its teeth 

G                        C 
I recall the sun in our faces 
                     Am 
Stuck and leaning on braces 
                         G 
And being strangers to change 
G                             C 
Radio and the bones we found frozen 
                            Am 
And all the thorns and the roses 
                     G 
Beneath your window pane 

Am G Now I'm asleep in a car, I mean the world Am To a potty-mouth girl G A pretty pair of blue-eyed birds Am G Time isn't kind or unkind, you liked to say Am But I wonder to who G G What it is you're saying today
( G C Am ) ( G C Am G ) Am G Now I'm asleep in a car, I mean the world Am To a potty-mouth girl G A pretty pair of blue-eyed birds Am G Time isn't kind or unkind, you liked to say Am But I wonder to who G What it is you're saying today G C Mary Anne, do you remember Am The tree by the river G When we were seventeen? G C Dark canyon road, I was coy in the half-moon Am Happy just to be with you G And you were happy for me
