 G                                         C 
Mary Anne, do you remember
                                 Am 
The tree by the river
                                     G 
When we were seventeen?
 G                                                                         C 
Dark canyon wall, the call and the answer
                                           Am 
And the mare in the pasture
                                                           G 
Pitch black and baring its teeth
 G                                               C 
I recall the sun in our faces
                                           Am 
Stuck and leaning on braces
                                                   G 
And being strangers to change
 G                                                         C 
Radio and the bones we found frozen
                                                         Am 
And all the thorns and the roses
                                           G 
Beneath your window pane
 Am                                       G 
  Now I'm asleep in a car, I mean the world
             Am 
To a potty-mouth girl
                                                   G 
A pretty pair of blue-eyed birds
 Am                                           G 
  Time isn't kind or unkind, you liked to say
                 Am 
But I wonder to who
                                                     G 
What it is you're saying today

 Am                                       G 
  Now I'm asleep in a car, I mean the world
             Am 
To a potty-mouth girl
                                                   G 
A pretty pair of blue-eyed birds
 Am                                           G 
  Time isn't kind or unkind, you liked to say
                 Am 
But I wonder to who
                                                     G 
What it is you're saying today
 G                                         C 
Mary Anne, do you remember
                                 Am 
The tree by the river
                                     G 
When we were seventeen?
 G                                                                     C 
Dark canyon road, I was coy in the half-moon
                                     Am 
Happy just to be with you
                                               G 
And you were happy for me
