Bringing Mary Home Chords

(ver. 1)
Mac Wiseman
D7                                    C               G
I was driving down a lonely road on a dark and stormy night
       D7                                  C            D7
When a little girl by the road side showed up in my headlights
  G                                              D7
I stopped and she got in the back and in a shaky tone
    C               A7              D7                G
She said My name is Mary and please won't you take me home

    D7                               C                  G
She must have been so frightened all alone there in the night
          D7                                    C                D7
There was something strange about her cause her face was deathly white
    G                                          D7
She sat so pale and quiet in the back seat all alone
  C          A7                    D7          G
I never will forget the night that I took Mary home

  D7                              C              G
I pulled into the drive way where she told me to go
    D7                               C             D7
Got out to help her from the car and opened up the door
      G                                                D7
But I just could not believe my eyes the back seat was bare
  C          A7                 D7          G
I looked all around the car but Mary wasn't there

  D7                           C                  G
A light shone from the porch a lady opened up the door
  D7                               C             D7
I asked about the little girl that I was looking for
    G                                           D7
The lady gently smiled at me and brushed a tear away
    C                A7             D7             G
She said it sure was nice of you to go out of your way

        D7                          C                   G
But thirteen years ago tonight in a wreck just down the road
    D7                         C               D7
Our darling Mary lost her life and we miss her so
   G                                                    D7
Oh thank you for your trouble and the kindness you have shown
           C                     A7        D7            G
You're the thirteenth one that's been here bringing Mary home
