[Bm] [G]
[D] [G]
[D] [F#m] [A]
[D] [A] Down the road I look [Bm] and there runs Mary, [G]
[D]
[G] hair of gold [F#m] and [A] lips like cherries.
[D] [A] We go down to the river where the [Bm] willows weep, [G] [D]
[G] taking naked root [F#] for a [F#m]
[A] lover's seed.
[D]
That [A] rose out of the bitten [Bm] soil,
[G] [D] bound [G] to the ground [F#m] by creeping [A] ivy coils.
[D] Oh Mary,
[A] you have seduced [Bm] my soul, [G]
[D]
[G] forever a hostage [D] of [F#m] your [A] [D] child's world.
[A] [Bm]

[G] [Bm] [D]
[A] [C#] [D]
Then [A] I ran my [Bm] tin cup hard along [G] the [D]
[G] prison of [F#m] her
[A] ribs.
[D] With a toss of her [A] curls, that little [Bm] girl goes wading in, [G] [D]
[G] rolling her [F#m] dress up past [C#] her knee.
And at the [D]
[A] end, turning these [Bm] waters into wine,
[G] [D] she [G] planted [D] all the [F#m] [A]
willow [D] [A] vines.
[Bm] [D] [G]
[D] [G]
[F#m] [D] [A]
[D] Mary [A] in the [Bm] shallows, [G] laughing over [D] [G]
where [D] the [A] cop
[D] dardened, spooked [A] by the new shadows that [Bm] she's cast.
[G]
[Bm] [D] [G] Across these sad [D] waters and [F#m] [A] across [D] my heart.
