[Verse 1]
Dm
I met Mary on a
A# F
moonless night
Dm
but her starry eyes
A#
could make the world

look bright She was
Dm
young and perfect
A# F
and full of life
when she said
Dm
I’m gonna make
A# F C/E
it out one night
Dm
I’m gonna make
A# F C/E
it out one night
[Verse 2]
Dm
As time passed
A# F
we both got old
Dm
From the bar she
lived above she
A# F
sat and wrote
Dm
by the light of
blue and yellow
A# F
neon signs
she wrote
Dm
I’m gonna make
A# F C/E
it out one night
Dm
I’m gonna make
A#
it out one night
[Chorus 1]

So Go on work all

Post Chorus: Guitar Solo
Dm A# F x4
[Verse 3]
Dm
I ran into her
A# F
in union square
Dm
but her starry
eyes were looking
A# F
dim and scared
Dm
With her cigarette
A#
providing all the
F Dm
light she said
Dm
I’m gonna make
A# F C/E
it out one night
Dm
I’m gonna make
A# F C/E
it out one night
[Verse 4]
Dm
It rained the night
A# F
I said goodbye When
Dm
I lit her candle
A#
I never thought
F Dm
to cry cause Mary
you never were
Dm A#
the staying kind
Dm
You were gonna
A#
make it out one
F C/E
night you were
Dm
gonna make it
A#
out one night
(Repeat Chorus 1)
[Bridge]
Dm
There’s a moment
C
that we chase
F
and we fall along
A#
the way cause we’re
Dm
not looking when we
C
run And if that
F A#
moment never comes
A#
save your breath
C
We only get so many
F C/E
trips around the
Dm A#
sun and there’s
C
no lucky stars
[Chorus 2]
F
So Go on work all
A# F
your angles out
Dm
Get a plan together
A#
Get your demons
F Dm
out Mary the world
A#
wants to bring you
F Dm
down but don’t
C
you let them
F A# F
whoa oh oh oh
Dm A# F
whoa oh oh oh
Dm A# F
whoa oh oh oh
Dm C F
