For some reason all the chords I found of this song are in the key of G, but the song is actually in A.
Likewise, I couldn't find any that tabbed out the picking, so I did my best. The chords are all correct,
and the picking is as close as I could get, but play around with it.
CHORDS USED:
A: x02220
Dadd9: xx0230
E: 022100
F#m: 244222
D: xx0232
INTRO - A
VERSE 1:
A threadbare alibiDadd9,
A lifetime full of pAromise
Fell from my Mary's eyes
As she watched the screen door sEwing
The Dadd9baby never wAoke,
He lay cF#mradled in her Dadd9trembliAng
He lay safe never kDadd9nowing
What my lEeaving would bAring
VERSE 2:
I draw my pay down on theDadd9 docks
Send it off to MAary
Might hold back a dollar
And wash this pain out of my bEack
But theDadd9 pain keeps gettin' cAlearer
And Mary your F#mface just keeps onDadd9 fadingA
Now the light shines through this bDottle
MemorEies all fade to Ablack
CHORUS:
Well I'llDadd9 see you out on the streets tonight
A. A.
I'm a lover of a drink, lover of a fight
HoDadd9ld my own on the dark side of this Atown
Yes I'mDadd9 tough as nails, got a heart of steel
I will nAever fear 'cause I will neverF#m feel
AndDadd9 one more round will surely set meE right
I miss my Mary toniAght
INTERLUDE:
Dadd9 - E - A
VERSE 3:
The call me the old man in thiDadd9s bar
Sleeves rolled up and sAhowin'
Faint blue souvenirs of love and places I have bEeen
OnDadd9e says &qAuot;US Navy"
And this F#mone says "Dadd9DarlingA Mary"
My Mary's turned to aDshes
And the oEcean's turned to Agin
CHORUS:
Well I'llDadd9 see you out on the streets tonight
A. A.
I'm a lover of a drink, lover of a fight
HoDadd9ld my own on the dark side of this Atown
Yes I'mDadd9 tough as nails, got a heart of steel
I will nAever fear 'cause I will neverF#m feel
AndDadd9 one more round will surely set meE right
I miss my Mary toniAght
