G A
[Verse]
A
She came into my life like a bombshell
A F#m E A
One look and I fell for little Mary Jean, Mary Jean, Mary Jean
A
She walked cool with her head always held high
A F#m
The glow in her eyes made her look like a queen
E A
A little queen, Mary Jean
[Chorus]
F#m G D
She took a hold of my heart and held me under a spell
F#m G B
I guess she knew me real well
E B
Just why we hung together through all those tears
D E
I couldn't tell you now in a million years
[Verse]
A
I didn't think that the cause of my downfall
A F#m E A
Would be pretty and small like little Mary Jean, Mary Jean, Mary Jean
A
And I couldn't know when I held her that first night
A F#m
feeling ever so right that one day it would end
E A
In a scene, Mary Jean
[Chorus]
F#m G D
Now she's gone yes she's gone and I think I'll be alright
F#m G B
But then the phone rings at night
E B
She's on the line again and it's just no fun
D E
We've got a bad connection, Mary I've gotta run
[Bridge]
Bm D A
Hey now, hey now I just had to tell her to go away
Bm D C Dm Amaj7 A
Hey now, hey now it's so unexciting around here today
