Chord/Tab song: First Thing About Mary

Chord,Tablature, lyric, sheet, guitar, ukulele song: First Thing About Mary - ( The [G]first thing about Mary, I'll [F]tell you 'cause yo...)

--
The [G]first thing about Mary, I'll [F]tell you 'cause you asked
[C]She don't like when folks are always [G]livin' in the past
You know, [G]talkin' 'bout the good old days and [F]how things might've been
If [C]some folks had been different it might be [G]better now for them
That's what you [Am]learn when you've known Mary [F]long as [C]I have

You see, when I met Mary Campbell, that's what her name was then
It was a party in the woods with the fire in a garbage can
And everyone stood and watched the embers risin' in the sky
I was askin' 'bout the little girl with the big brown eyes
But no one knew the first thing about Mary

CHORUS:
But [C]I ain't worried about it none, I know [G]it'll all be okay
[Am]She's gonna come on [F]back to me some[C]day
'Cause [G]he don't know the first thing about [F]Mary
[C]She could never love a man that [G]way

You see, one thing about Mary is that she don't ever lie
But she can tell if you are just by lookin' in your eyes
And she'll say that she forgives you and you'll try to make amends
But once her trust is gone she can't really give it back again
That's what you learn when you've known Mary long as I have

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Pray that [Em]they don't dust your life for the [G]little fingerprints
I can't re[Am]call my life before her and there [C]ain't been nothin' since
And [Em]they can raise great buildings full of [G]stuff I'll never learn
But I [F]understand the reason for the [C]fire and how it burns

You see, one thing about Mary not a lot of people know
Is she can't stay in small towns if she thinks she needs to grow
And you may think it's just a phase and she'll soon give in
And she won't ever leave you boy, you better think again
'Cause you can't throw a rope around my Mary

CHORUS

No [G]he don't know the first thing about [F]Mary
[C]She could never love a man that [G]way
