Intro: Am C C/B x 3 F
Am F
Give me mercy and a minute now. I�ma bleed a little poison
C G
out. I�ma cry a little river down, then I�m setting this whole
Am F
thing on fire. And I�m burning up the night she died. I�m
C
putting every last picture aside, I�m gonna say what I need to
G Am
say. In my very last letter to you 'Cause you always made it
F C
clear, said you�d never be my pain. So here�s to you and your
G Am
bright baby blues, just a pause to cool the refrain.
F
And you said were satisfied, that this body just weighted the
C G
tide. And that you missed him sometimes, but you said it's all right, its just a
whole lot harder alone.
Am C/B F x 3 G
Chorus:
C G Am
But I wish you knew her now. She�s the better side of me now.
F C
I�m doing the best I can. That's what you'da wanted. And I see
G Am
like you were there. I know just how you'd smile. Mary, you
F
looked just like, it was 1930 that night.
Am F
But hear the days will eat you alive, but I won�t give in
C G
tonight. You said its not worth my time, and not to regard
Am F
them. And not to settle just for piece of mind, I could wait
C G Am
it out all night, If I just keep breathing [sigh] But Mary,
F C
I found the sound, and if this heart keeps pouring it out,
G
The glory hasn't come, and it's probably gonna fade, like a
Am F
tattoo that hides this shame. But reasons always fade.
C
The pain gives out some day. So I�m saying my goodbyes to your
G Am C/B F
deep blue eyes, cause I don�t know how say, to stay still
Am C/B F Am C/B F G
in the pain. Stay still in the pain.
[Chorus]
Interlude:
C F C F (picking)
C G Am
And if I recall the last thing you said to me, before it broke
C G F
up. Before it took you from me.
C G Am F
You said I love you more than the stars in the sky, but your
C G Am F
name just escapes me tonight.
(Nobody does it like you anymore)
