Mother Mary    (Foxboro Hot Tubs)

Intro:
A  C#m  Bm  E

Verse 1:
A                 C#m
Do you want    to elope tonight
Bm                  E
Gettin' lost in the shadows
A                     C#m
All dressed up like a switchblade knife
Bm                          E
Let's hang in love from the gallows
A                      C#m
Or we can take a walk around the lake
Bm                      E
There's a garden in the park    there
A                           C#m
Under the stars next-to-the fireside
Bm                 E
Anywhere is better than   here


Chorus 1 (ooh’s begin lines 1-3):
D         E             A
Oh Mother Mary, take my hand
D         E                   A
I'll be a saint, I'll be your man
D            E                A       F#m
I'll do most anything, 'cause I don't care
D         E             A
Oh Mother Mary, take my hand 

bum-bum-bum; bum-bum-ba-dada-dada  x2
 

Verse 2:
A                  C#m
Take a ride on the midnight train  (ooh)
Bm                       E
We'll fall asleep at the station
A                      C#m
Too much wine, driving me insane (ooh)
Bm                           E
And then we'll miss our destination
A                                 C#m
Oh well, too bad, who cares, it's alright (ooh)
Bm                         E
As long as we will stick together
A                            C#m
In Hell we’ll rain arrows of sunshine (ooh)
Bm                               E
We'll watch it rise and shine forever

D         E             A
Oh Mother Mary, take my hand

I'll be a saint, I'll be your man
D            E                A       F#m
I'll do most anything, 'cause I don't care
D         E             A
Oh Mother Mary, take my hand 

bum-bum-bum; bum-bum-ba-dada-dada  x2

I'll be a saint, I'll be your man
D            E                A       F#m
I'll do most anything, 'cause I don't care
