  THE LIGHTS SHINE  DOWN THE VALLEY,   THE WIND BLOWS  UP THE ALLEY,
C                    |G                   |C    |Bb  Ab  |

  SHE TOOK THE  PAINS OF BOYHOOD,   AND TURNED THEM  INTO FEEL GOOD,

            |Em                       |Am
MARY WAS THE GIRL  WHO TAUGHT ME ALL I HAD  TO KNOW,
          |F                    |G
SHE PUT ME RIGHT ON MY FIRST MIS-TAKE.
             |Em                          |Am
SUMMER WASN'T GONE  WHEN I LEARNED ALL SHE HAD  TO SHOW,
          |F                    |G     |G7    |
SHE REALLY GAVE  ALL A BOY COULD TAKE,  WO-AH.

C             |G           |C                      |F            |
  SO NOW WHEN  I GET LONELY,  STILL LOOKING FOR THE ONE  AND ONLY,
C                         |G                   |C    |Bb  Ab  |
THAT’S  WHEN I WISH I WAS, LYIN' IN THE ARMS OF MARY.
