verse 1
     C          F
When Mary was a young girl
C
she took to wanderin'.
G                G7
Never would she leave me
C 
and not come back again.
C                F
Swear I hear her singing,
Am             F
singing in the western wind.
C              G7            C     G7 INTO CHORUS 
Three days and Mary's comin' home.

(Chorus)
C             F
Mary chased a rainbow
C
over the mountains.
G               G7 
Crossed so many rivers, Lord,
C
that I quit countin'.
                        F
She wouldn't want those rainbows
Am          F
even if she found them.
C              G7            C     G7 INTO CHORUS 
Three days and Mary's comin' home.

(Chorus)
C               F
Watchin' for my Mary,
C 
wish she was home again.
G             G7 
Home from the rivers, Lord,
C 
home from the mountains.
C            F
If I turn my back, say,
Am            F
she'd just be gone again.
C              G7            C     G7 INTO FINAL CHORUS
Three days and Mary's comin' home.
