[Verse 1]
It took me G#myears but then we finally Had a Etime and place to meet She looked a D#mwhole lot like her mother If she was C#mwho she claimed to be But I G#mhad my doubts as I walked Out of the Eairport to my car Then I watched D#mall Buenos Aires melting Through the C#mrain pelting the glass
[Chorus 1]
And Aoh, MariG#ma As a F#child I loved you Emost AOh, MaG#mria I'm not so F#stubborn now, not even Eclose
[Verse 2]
I knoG#mcked, she led me up She filled a Ekettle in the sink Told me her D#mmother bought the place After she gC#mot out of Berlin She weren't G#mstaying to thank no Russian tank None of her Esisters got away Some wound up D#mturned into lampshades While the C#mrest burned at the stake But MarG#mia with her iron cross Had Efled into the sky She reached the D#mold Chilean border Wrapped in a deC#merskin with her child
[Chorus 2]
But Aoh, MarG#mia I thought that F#you could read my Emind AOh, MarG#mia I'm no F#reporter, you have no F#child
[Verse 3]
You see, what I'm G#msayin' Is MariEa's here with us now And that's 'cause she is D#myou And you will live foC#mrever And it's too lG#mate to know If the rest is lies or Etruth But I do know you're D#mproof That there's no God in C#mheaven
[Verse 4]
Oh, BMaria Who vanished without Atrace Is now sat face to Cface With someone who Bremembers Oh, BMaria Is it a blessing or a Acurse How all your men die with the CEarth And yet your life is Bendless? Oh, MaDria My work will set you Cfree It's like a gift from you to D#me By way of deDception And you can Drun But you'll never get Caway So if you're gonna make your D#play The time is now or Dnever
