Sam Roberts - Oh maria

^Em You could never ^Acompromise ^Em I could never ^Asatisfy you at all ^D Always thought you had ^Ggentle eyes ^D Then you've had me insti^Gtutionalized (twice ^Embefore) Before I was a ^Ayoung man ^Em Now look at me, I'm just ^Ayounger than old ^D The years don't seem to ^Gtouch you ^D It makes me wonder what ^Gyou sold ^{A G}

^GOh my Maria ^F#m I'll never ^Emchange you, I ^Dknow...I ^Aknow ^{A G G}I need to see you ^F#m That never ^Emchanges, oh ^Bmno

^Em You lived on the ^A7th floor ^Em It was far from ^Aheaven but it meant more ^D You said things that were ^Ghard to ignore ^D My conversation ^Gmakes you bored ^Em You always hated ^Awedding bells ^Em You'd go out riding with ^Athe Hell's and say ^DLife is for the ^Gtaking ^EmLife is for the ^Bmtaking... ^{A G}

^A So how's it going to be, ^DMaria? ^A Will it be you and me? Or will it be ^Em Five more years of counting my tears ^Em Five more years of living in fear ^A I beg for my supper at night

^Em And my heart's burning out of control ^Bm They gave her five, but she's out on parole ^D Hey, hey, hey This girl is leading me ^Emastray ^D

Saw a ^Empho-to-graph of ^Ayou today Your ^Emeyes look tired, but ^Ayou haven't aged And ^Dnow I see that you ^Gmade the front page ^DMarried for the money and you ^Gblew him away Oh ^EmMaria, when you were ^Adoing time You only ^Emhad five words ^Aon your mind

^DLife is for the ^Gtaking ^EmLife is for the ^Bmtaking ^{A G}

^A I beg for my supper at night ^{D A} If this is love then it don't feel right ^Em And my heart's burning out of control ^Bm They gave her five, but she's out on parole

^D Hey hey hey This girl is leading me ^Emastray ^D Listen what I ^Dsay This girl is leading me ^Emastray
