Mary Jo, living alone
B5
Drinking tea, on her own
    A5                            E5
She wants, I don't know what you want
E5
Mary Jo, living alone
B5
Drinking gin, the telly's on
    A5
She wants

(refr?o 1)
                    E5             F#5
The night to follow day and back again
                    G#5
She doesn't want to sleep
               A5                E5
Well who could blame her if she wants?
                    F#5          G#5
The night to follow day and back again
                    A5
She doesn't want to sleep
               F#5               A5
Well who could blame her, if she sleeps?
             F#5               A5
Oh who could blame her, if she sleeps?
             F#5                E5
Oh who could blame her, if she's sleeping?

E5
Mary Jo, back with yourself
   B5                                      A5
For company, keep telling yourself you're young
                 E5
And it'll happen soon
E5
Mary Jo, no one can guess
     B5
What you've been through
                       A5
Now you've got love to burn

(refr?o)
                    E5                  F#5
It's someone else's turn to go through Hell
                     G#5             A5
And you can see them come from fifty yards
             E5
Yeah you can tell
                    F#5            G#5
It's someone else's turn to take a fall
                    A5                  F#5
And now you are the one who's strong enough to help them
    A5                  F#5
The one who's strong enough to help them
    A5                  F#5              E5
The one who's strong enough to help them all

( E5  F#5  G#5  A5 ) (2x)

C#5
Mary Jo, you're looking thin
       B5
You're reading a book, "The State I Am In"
    A5                      E5
But oh, it doesn't help at all
C#5
Cos what you want is a cigarette
      B5                              A5
And a thespian with a caravanette in Hull

                      E5            F#5
Your life is never dull in your dreams
               G#5            A5               E5
A pity that it never seems to work the way you see it
              F#5          G#5
Life is never dull in your head
                A5              F#5
A sorry tale of action and the men you left for
A5              F#5
Women, and the men you left for
A5                 F#5              E5
Intrigue, and the men you left for dead

              F#5          G#5
Life is never dull in your dreams
               A5                E5
A pity that it never works out, Mary
              F#5          G#5
Life is never dull in your dreams
                A5              F#5
A sorry tale of action and the men you left for
A5              F#5
Women, and the men you left for
A5                 F#5              E5
Intrigue, and the men you left for dead
E5
The men you left for dead
