Tabbed by Dylan Williams


Can't wait to see this guy with the Tallest Man in September. A really under-
rated artist, I should say.

Easy song, here's how it works:

Capo on the first fret, key of G# with the following chord shapes-

G --------- 320003
C --------- X32010
Em -------- 022000
Em7 ------- 020000
G (ii)----- 320033
Em7 (ii)--- 022030

So:

(Intro)

G   C   G   C

G                                  C
Lately he hasn't been listening to me
G                                  C
Lately he hasn't been listening to me
               Em            Em7       C
I guess he's a man and he's meant to leave

           G
Well I'm standing here right next to me
      C
I got no girl whose gonna to listen to me
         G
What can I do?
           C
What can I do?

          Em        Em7                      C 
And so I pray the child's prayer I was taught as a little kid
Before my head was stretched
            Em
Before my mother died
           Em7
Before my brother died
             C                  G
Before the plague... ruined my life

(Bridge)

G   C   G   C
G   C

            G
I'm gonna change my prayer
I'm gonna change my prayer
            C
I'm gonna change my prayer
   
    G
So Mary...
    C
So Mary...
    G       C
So Mary...

    G (ii)                     G
So Mary, Mary, Mary would you marry me?
G(ii)                       G
Mary, Mary, Mary would you marry me?
            Em7 (ii)                  Em
And me and you and Jesus could be a family
G (ii)                      G
Mary, Mary, Mary if you'd marry me?
        Em7 (ii)                Em
Me and Jesus could play and do child-like things
G (ii)                         G    Em    G                
Oh Mary, Mary, Mary would you marry me?
