^GShe's a walking ^Ctalking breathing ^GNew Age wonder, ^Cold time heathens ^GDon't know what to ^Cmake of ^DMary ^GJane ^C ^D 'Cause ^Gshe ain't trying to ^Cbe no swami, ^Gshe ain't mad at ^Cdad and mommy ^GShe don't curse the ^Cstorm clouds when it ^Drains

When the sun refuse to ^Gshine she don't ^Dmind, she make ^Ceverything look ^Dfine She got ^Gmoon in her ^Deyes, crescent ^Cwindows on the ^Dskies And the ^Emrain comes down in ^Csheets on the ^Empeople in the ^Astreets And it ^Ccarries all the ^Dsecrets that they ^Ckeep to the ^Driver where she ^Gsleeps

INSTRUMENTAL: G C G C G C D G C G D

She ^Gcomes to me when ^CI'm dejected, ^Gleaves her soul out ^Cunprotected ^GTells me that the ^Ctruth can ^Dmake me ^Gfree ^C ^D And ^Gshe don't need what ^Cshe ain't got, she ^Greads me books by ^CAlan Watts ^GSpeaking words o' ^Cwisdom: "Let it ^Dbe"

When the sun refuse to ^Gshine she don't ^Dmind, she take ^Cthunder for a ^Dsign She got ^Gstars in her ^Dhead, super^Cnovas in her ^Dbed And it ^Emrains most every ^Cday, but I ^Em(like it fine that ^Away 'Cause the ^Cwaters run so ^Dmarvelous and ^Cdeep in the ^Driver where she ^Gsleeps

INSTRUMENTAL: G C G C G C D G C G D (2x)

^GMary ain't in^Cclined to drinking, ^Gstill she stumbles ^Cwithout thinking ^GAnywhere she ^Cgets the ^Durge to ^Gstray ^C ^D And ^Geverybody ^Cknows about her, ^Gthey don't want to ^Cchange or doubt her ^GThey just grin when ^Cshe comes out to ^Dplay

When the sun refuse to ^Gshine she don't ^Dmind, she be ^Cmoving down the ^Dline She got ^Gbells on her ^Dtoes, gene^Crations in her ^Dclothes And she ^Emsings without a ^Csound as the ^Emevening rolls a^Around And she ^Cdances as the ^Dtwilight shadows ^Ccreep down the ^Driver where she ^Gsleeps

INSTRUMENTAL: G C G C G C D G C G D

Pro^Gfessor come to ^Cburst my bubble, ^Gsays that girl is ^Cbound for trouble ^GServes me solace ^Cin a ^Dpaper ^Gcup ^C ^D But it ^Glooks a bit like ^Cagent orange and ^Gwhen he leaves he ^Cslams the door and ^GJust about that ^Ctime she phones me ^Dup

When the sun refuse to ^Gshine she don't ^Dmind, she just ^Cain't the worrying ki^Dnd She got ^Gdogs, she got ^Dcats, she keeps ^Crabbits in her ^Dhats And the ^Empeople that she ^Csees, they're all ^Embuddhas or po^Alice And the ^Cbanks rise high and ^Dperilous and ^Csteep by the ^Driver where she ^Gsleeps

INSTRUMENTAL: G C G C G C D G C G D (2x)

Now ^Gone dismayed De^Ccember dawn. I ^Gwake to find my ^CMary's gone And ^Gno one knows when ^Cshe'll come ^Dback ^Gagain ^C ^D And ^Gall the silent ^Ctemple bells from ^GStyx to Glenn to ^CHazel Dell Are ^Gmourning all the ^Cnights that might have ^Dbeen

When the sun refuse to ^Gshine she don't ^Dmind, she just ^Cleave this world behind ^D She got ^Gwheels in her ^Dsmile, she can ^Ccoast along for ^Dmiles Me, I'm ^Emwalking all a^Clone, feeling ^Emsoulful to the ^Abone 'Til I ^Cstop and I ^Dhang my head and ^Cweep by the ^Driver where she ^Gsleeps
