Fmaj7 Em7
Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me but I could've sworn
Fmaj7 Em7
That the kiss that was meant truly for me is leaving me torn
Fmaj7 Em7
How can love be so kind and so gentle and turn and be so cold
Fmaj7 Em7
And why must my arms feel so empty for what my heart still holds
[Chorus]
Fmaj7
Mary how could you go
Em7
Around and hurt me so
Fmaj7
I've tried so hard to please you, baby
Em7
But I just can't seem to, baby
Fmaj7
Mary how could you go
Em7
Around and hurt me so
Fmaj7
I've tried so hard to please you, baby
Em7
But I just can't seem to, baby
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7 Em7
Now was there something I could've done to change this outcome here
Fmaj7 Em7
As if I blinked my eyes and suddenly she up and disappeared
Fmaj7 Em7
How can love escape your grasp without you ever letting go
Fmaj7 Em7
And until she returns to my offer I may never know
[Hook]
Fmaj7
Mary how could you go
Em7
Around and hurt me so
Fmaj7
I've tried so hard to please you baby
Em7
But I just can't seem to baby
Fmaj7
Mary how could you go
Em7
Around and hurt me so
Fmaj7
I've tried so hard to please you baby
Em7
But I just can't seem to baby
