Intro:       D5 - C5 - G5 - Gadd11 - G5       2x

 D5  C5                  G5            G5 - Gadd11 - G5                 
  Mary  cries out: for the  love of God 
 D5       C5                 G5          G5 - Gadd11 - G5                
  As she's  walking out of the  Laundromat 
 D5       C5                   G5              G5 - Gadd11 - G5          
  Down the  street and it's the  short way home 
 D5      C5                   G5                        
  Feeling  special cause she's  so alone    But we know:
 Bb5 - F5                  G5             D5                  
      The world's full of  lonely people      And it shows
 Bb5 - F5                  G5              D5                 
      The world's full of  lonely people 
 D5             C5               G5               G5 - Gadd11 - G5       
  She shrugs her  coat off and un-  locks the door 
 D5       C5             G5             G5 - Gadd11 - G5                 
  Eats her  dinner on the  kitchen floor 
 D5       C5                 G5         G5 - Gadd11 - G5                 
  Writes a  poem and turns the  radio on 
 D5    C5                G5                             
  Every  singer sings the  same old song    And it goes:
 Bb5 - F5                 G5              D5                  
     The world's full of  lonely people        And it shows
 Bb5 - F5                  G5                              
      The world's full of  lonely

             D5                                   
But when she  wanted me to go
         A5             C5 *      Bb5                      
She just    had to let it   show 
 A5                                               
 To bring me down 
       D5                                         
if she   wanted me to leave
        A5              C5 *       Bb5                     
She just   wore it on her   sleeve 
 A5                     D5      C5 - G5 - Gadd11 - G5                       
  But at least, I was a-  round

She just    had to let it   show 
 A5                                               
 To bring me down 
       D5

        A5              C5 *       Bb5

 D5       C5                   G5            G5 - Gadd11 - G5            
  As she's  looking through old  photographs 
 D5       C5             G5           G5 - Gadd11 - G5                   
  Pictures  taken from an  early age 
 D5    C5                G5                             
  Faces  look back at her  from the page   And they say
 Bb5 - F5                  G5             D5                  
      The world's full of  lonely people    It's ok
 Bb5 - F5                 G5             D5                   
     The world's full of  lonely people    It's ok
 Bb5 - F5                 G5                               
     The world's full of  

             D5                                   
But when she  wanted me to go
         A5             C5 *      Bb5                      
She just    had to let it   show

 To bring me down 
       D5

        A5              C5 *       Bb5                     
She just   wore it on her   sleeve 
 A5                      D5       A5
