 G                             C                                 G                             C 
She's a walking talking breathing New Age wonder, old time heathens
 G                                   C             D       G         C   D 
Don't know what to make of Mary Jane
               G                                     C                       G                               C 
'Cause she ain't trying to be no swami, she ain't mad at dad and mommy
 G                                     C                                       D 
She don't curse the storm clouds when it rains
                                               G                             D                           C                             D 
When the sun refuse to shine she don't mind, she make everything look fine
                 G                     D                           C                           D 
She got moon in her eyes, crescent windows on the skies
                 Em                                 C                         Em                       A 
And the rain comes down in sheets on the people in the streets
               C                             D                                 C                     D                             G 
And it carries all the secrets that they keep to the river where she sleeps

         G                               C                         G                                     C 
She comes to me when I'm dejected, leaves her soul out unprotected
 G                                 C                 D             G         C   D 
Tells me that the truth can make me free
         G                                     C                                   G                                 C 
And she don't need what she ain't got, she reads me books by Alan Watts
 G                                 C                             D 
Speaking words o' wisdom: "Let it be"
                                               G                             D                           C                         D 
When the sun refuse to shine she don't mind, she take thunder for a sign
                 G                       D                   C                       D 
She got stars in her head, supernovas in her bed
               Em                             C                   Em                                 A 
And it rains most every day, but I (like it fine that way
                       C                         D                         C                     D                             G 
'Cause the waters run so marvelous and deep in the river where she sleeps

 G                       C                                     G                                   C 
Mary ain't inclined to drinking, still she stumbles without thinking
 G                       C               D             G           C   D 
Anywhere she gets the urge to stray
         G                 C                               G                                   C 
And everybody knows about her, they don't want to change or doubt her
 G                                     C                               D 
They just grin when she comes out to play
                                               G                             D                       C                             D 
When the sun refuse to shine she don't mind, she be moving down the line
                 G                       D                 C                           D 
She got bells on her toes, generations in her clothes
                 Em                           C                       Em                         A 
And she sings without a sound as the evening rolls around
                 C                         D                               C                           D                             G 
And she dances as the twilight shadows creep down the river where she sleeps

       G                           C                               G                                 C 
Professor come to burst my bubble, says that girl is bound for trouble
 G                               C       D         G       C   D 
Serves me solace in a paper cup
               G                               C                               G                                 C 
But it looks a bit like agent orange and when he leaves he slams the door and
 G                             C                                   D 
Just about that time she phones me up
                                               G                             D                           C                                       D 
When the sun refuse to shine she don't mind, she just ain't the worrying kind
                 G                         D                             C                           D 
She got dogs, she got cats, she keeps rabbits in her hats
                 Em                           C                                 Em                     A 
And the people that she sees, they're all buddhas or police
                 C                                     D                       C                       D                             G 
And the banks rise high and perilous and steep by the river where she sleeps

         G                           C                           G                             C 
Now one dismayed December dawn. I wake to find my Mary's gone
         G                                 C                     D       G           C   D 
And no one knows when she'll come back again
         G                           C                                 G                               C 
And all the silent temple bells from Styx to Glenn to Hazel Dell
         G                               C                                           D 
Are mourning all the nights that might have been
                                               G                             D                           C                                               D 
When the sun refuse to shine she don't mind, she just leave this world behind
                 G                         D                           C                             D 
She got wheels in her smile, she can coast along for miles
                 Em                     C                         Em                         A 
Me, I'm walking all alone, feeling soulful to the bone
               C                   D                               C                     D                             G 
'Til I stop and I hang my head and weep by the river where she sleeps
