[A]
Mary Jane says it's [D] alright, [A] she's just around the corner from the main line
And he did and now it's [D] alright, she's [A] standing on the precipice of big time
And I know I'm a little [D] uptight, [A] and I got to go before the sun shines
Yeah, we're just a couple small people squeezing out our life
We need a little good time, it's not far from here
Mary comes [D] and goes, drifting through the [F#] [E] scenery of [A] shallow days [D] below
And as everybody knows you follow [A] trains out of town
[D] And [A] they vanish somewhere under the horizon
[D] [A] Yeah, well I saw Mary Jane, and I got settled in the tracks and fade off into the distance
[E] [A] It's not far [F#] from [F#m] here, [E]
Mary waves [D] hello
Smiling though she's [F#] [F#m] sinking [E] in shallow [A] days [D] below
Oh no, [B] can't [D] find the way out [E] of [F#] here
Out [B] on the road again, I'm much, much too [D] concerned about [F#] Mary Jane
I'm [B] all alone again and I like [D] what she said, but not what it [F#] means
She leads [A] me drowning [B] through the shallow [D] days down [F#] below
[E] Oh, I heard [A] a band playing [D] waltzes [A] in the grange while the sun is sinking lower
[D] [A] People staring at Mary Jane humming softly to herself, but nobody really knows [E] her
[A] Any day now it's alright, she tells herself that this will be the last time
Mary Jane pulls her hair [D] back [A] and wonders what she'll do with all her free time
Not too far [F#] from [F#m] here, [A] Mary turns [D] to go
Violent thunders and [F#] waltzes [F#m] begin, [A] dancing down the [D] road
Oh no, [B] hey hey [D] Mr.
Freedom, what are [Em] we [F#] supposed to think?
[B] Cause I'm a very [D] tiny person and it [F#] worries me
[B] I'm all alone again and I like [D] what she said, but not what it [F#] means
She leads me [A] drowning [B] in the shallow [D] days way down [F#] below
Yeah, yeah, [A] yeah, yeah
No, no, no, hey
No, no, no, no, no, [D] no, no
I'm, I'm sorry, she [A] said, I know
It's not the kind of thing you want
[D] I'm falling, falling down
I'm sorry, she [A] said, I know
I'm not the kind of girl you want
[F#] We're [E] falling, oh,
[B] [E] falling, oh, falling, [D] falling down
[E]
