Hi :)
Well, this is one of my favourite songs by The Fallen Drakes
who aren't very well known at the moment, and I realized the
chords for this song weren't up so I worked them out myself!
I've seen in the acoustic music video they use a capo on 2
but I worked it outwithout a capo, and I think it's easier
like this.
I hope you enjoy it! :)

Intro:
A, D, A, D
A
Mary never said where she came from
D
She kept me guessing for the answers that I craved
A
And I met her on the avenue of angels,
D
Where she asked me for my name
A
She doesn't believe in the free world,
D
She don't wanna answer to a man,
A
As we walk along the river in our own time,
D
She held my hand
A
Did she run away before?
D
Did she run away before she got the world?
A
Did she run away before?
D
Did she run away before she got the world?

E F#m D
She took the last train, I never seen her go,
A
She thinks she outta time, and I gotta let her know,
E F#m D
I don't believe her, when she says she's fine
Chorus:
E F#m D
'Cause I fell in love with a girl from New York,
E F#m D
Oh I fell in love with a girl from New York
Interlude:
A, D, A, D
A
We sheltered from the snow in a cold church,
D
Just the stars and stripes to wrap around our bones
A
The cathedral doors were heavy as a lost heart,
D
And a closed as Mary's hope
E F#m D
She took the last train, I never seen her go,
A
She thinks she outta time, and I gotta let her know,
E F#m D
I don't believe her, when she says she's fine
Chorus:
E F#m D
'Cause I fell in love with a girl from New York,
E F#m D
Oh I fell in love with a girl from New York
x2
Interlude/Ending:
E, F#m, D, D x3
A, D
A (one strum)
Mary closed her eyes for the last time,
D (one strum)
And I felt the strength inside her slip away
Enjoy! :)
