[Intro]
A (2 bars)
[Verse 1]
AI put on my finest summer dress
ASo light and thin, it was my best
I Dbrushed my hair, I Bmheld my breath
I went Aout to face the wilderness
I went Eout to face D the wildeArness
[Verse 2]
AMen in hats, boys on bikes
APerfect girls, baby dykes
DSuperstars, Bmblighted ones
I went Aout to face them one by one
I went Eout to face them, D one by Aone
[Chorus]
GGoodD/F#bye GMaryAann
GAs you Dturn to watch Ame
GDon't D/F#cry GMaryAann
BmAnd don't C#mtry to Dstop me E
[Verse 3]
ACause I'm gonna go where the lights are bright
AWhere sacred secrets sail like kites
We've been Dsleeping girl Bmall our lives
And we Anever lived no we just survived
And Ewe never liveDd. We just Asurvived
[Verse 4]
AI'll take my heart, I'll take my key
AI'll find out who, who could care for me
Are there Dpots of gold, are there Bmfloods and fires
Are there F#mthieves and beggars, Asaints and liars
Are there Ethieves and beggars, D saints and Aliars?
[Chorus]
GGoodD/F#bye GMaryAann
GAs you Dturn to watch Ame
GDon't D/F#cry GMaryAann
BmAnd don't C#mtry to Dstop me E
[Verse 5]
AI put on my finest summer dress
ASo light and thin, torn at the chest
I Dbrushed my hair, I held my breath
I Awent out to face the wilderness
I went Eout to face D the wildeArness
