Mary Was An Only Child Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Art Garfunkel
INTRO: Em 

  D  G   D  G C  G     Bm
Mary was an only child
G                  D    D7
Nobody held her, nobody smiled
        Em                              B7
She was born in a trailer, wretched and poor
        Em           Am       Em       B7   Em
And she shone like a gem in a five-and-dime store

     Em Am Em B7 Em

  D  G   D  G       C  G   Bm
Mary had no friends at all
G                           D   D7
Just famous faces pinned to the wall
Em                                    B7
All of them watched her, none of them saw
         Em           Am       Em       B7   Em
That she shone like a gem in a five-and-dime store


INSTRUMENTAL:
     Em Am Em B7 Em 

    Saxophone Break

     Em Am Em B7 Em 

D   G  D   G               C  G      Bm
And if you watch the stars at night
        G                      D  D7
And you find them shining equally bright
    Em                                                 B7
You might have seen Jesus, and not have known what you saw
          Em       Am       Em       B7   Em
Who would notice a gem in a five-and-dime store?

OUTRO: Em Am Em B7 Em 
       Em Am Em B7 Em 
       Em Am Em B7 Em
