Bm
I met Mary on a
G D
moonless night
Bm
but her starry eyes

could make the world

look bright She was

young and perfect

and full of life
when she said
Bm
I’m gonna make
G D A/C#
it out one night
Bm
I’m gonna make
G D A/C#
it out one night
[Verse 2]
Bm
As time passed
G D
we both got old
Bm
From the bar she
lived above she
G D
sat and wrote
Bm
by the light of
blue and yellow
G D
neon signs
she wrote
Bm
I’m gonna make
G D A/C#
it out one night
Bm
I’m gonna make
G
it out one night

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