Bobby Bare - Mary Ann Regrets Chords

[Intro]
D
 
 
[Verse 1]
D                                             A7
I saved up my money to buy my sweetheart some flowers
                                                 D
For Saturday's date and I restlessly counted the hours
                                                G    Em
And today in the mail I recieved a short little note
      A7                                            D
And I broke down inside the message that her mother wrote
 
 
[Chorus]
D                                         A7
Mary Ann regrets she's unable to see you again
                                                       D
We're leaving for Europe next week she'll be busy till then
                                                             G    Em
They know that she loves me but poor boys don't fit in their plan
    A7                                  D
Goodbye true love goodbye my sweet Mary Ann
 
 
[Verse 2]
D                                                    A7
The weeks have gone by not a word have I heard since then
                                                  D
In the papers I read of the far away places she's been
                                             G    Em
I can't eat I can't sleep for over and over again
   A7                                           D
My mind reads that letter and I cry for my Mary Ann
 
 
[Chorus]
D                                         A7
Mary Ann regrets she's unable to see you again
                                                       D
We're leaving for Europe next week she'll be busy till then
                                                             G    Em
They know that she loves me but poor boys don't fit in their plan
    A7                                  D    E7
Goodbye true love goodbye my sweet Mary Ann
 
 
[Verse 2]
   E                                        B7
My Mary Ann died they said she just wasted away
                                                  E
If I could have seen her I know she'd be living today
                                                 A    F#m
For we loved each other and if they had left us alone
  B7                                            E
Today she'd be wearing my ring not a blanket of stone
 
 
[Chorus]
E                                         B7
Mary Ann regrets she's unable to see you again
                                                       E
We're leaving for Europe next week she'll be busy till then
                                                             A    F#m
They know that she loves me but poor boys don't fit in their plan
    B7                                  E
Goodbye true love goodbye my sweet Mary Ann
