Title: THE WIND CRIES MARY (Jimi Hendrix)
1967
Intro: E F F# E F F# (repeat once)
C# B# B F#
After all the jacks are in their boxes
C# B# B F#
And the clowns have all gone to bed
C# B# B F#
You can hear happiness staggering on down the street
G# B E F F#
Footsteps dressed in red
G# B E F F# E F F#
And the wind whispers Mary
C# B# B F#
A broom is drearily sweeping
C# B# B F#
Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life
C# B# B F#
Somewhere a queen is weeping
G# B E F F#
Somewhere a king has no wife
G# B E F F# E F F#
And the wind cries Mary

(Solo)
You can strum verse chords as a background
C# B# B F#
The traffic lights turn blue tomorrow
C# B# B F#
And shine the emptiness down on my bed
C# B# B F#
The tiny island sags downstream
G# B E F F#
Cause the life that lived is dead
G# B E F F# E F F#
And the wind screams Mary
C# B# B F#
Will the wind ever remember
C# B# B F#
The names it has blown in the past
C# B# B F#
With its crutch, its old age, and its wisdom
G# B# B E F F#
It whispers no, this will be the last
G# B# B E F F# E F F#
And the wind cries Mary
Outro: E F F# E F F#
