B7M F#m7
I love the tone that's in your laugh

Gasping for an extra breath

Waiting for the time to pass
I believe in days ahead
Don't spend another night alone
Cross and wishing you were dead.
Eadd9 B D* A7

G#m7 E7M D#7
Mary, you shouldn't let them make you mad
You are the best you can
And Mary, after all the pain is gone
I'm always gonna live to be your man.
C#m7 A7
I've had it easy now you see
When I'm down you're always there
Standing by to comfort me
Someday we'll go round the world
I'll make the journey so sublime
I know you're not a travelin' girl.
Mary, you shouldn't let 'em make you mad
You are the best you can
And Mary, after all the pain is gone
I'm always gonna live to be your man.
C#m7 A7
B A
Cause I'd give everything I have
G#m
Forget all the things that bring me joy
E
If you could have one day
C#m B
Pure and simple happiness
A
Until that moment comes
G#m
I'll be here where I've always been
E
I'm gonna be your friend
C#m
Until the day I die.
Mary, you shouldn't let 'em make you mad
You hold the best you can
And Mary, after all the pain is gone
I'm always gonna live to be your man.
C#m7 A7
