Robert Earl Keen - Maria Chords

Maria 


Verse 1
(C) There's a salt grain tapping on your window
There's a cool breeze blowing off the (F) bay
(G) A warm flame dancing with our shadows
(F) To music playing far a (G) way

Verse 2
(C) I never meant to stay an hour
I thought that I was passing (F) through
(G) Another town along the highway
(F) I never (G) meant to fall for (C) you

CHORUS

(F) I can't (G) speak for you (C) Maria
(E) I only know the way I (F) feel
But when I (G) sleep with you (C) Maria
(F) There's nothing (G) left for dreams to (C) steal

(Use chords for verse 2 for the rest of the songs)

On a Bible by the mirror
The only treasures that we hold
The only secrets that we're keeping
A watch, a chain, a cross of gold

REPEAT CHORUS

When the sunlight brings the morning
I cannot tell you what I'll do
But I've a mind to take you with me
And I've a heart to stay with you

REPEAT CHORUS
Repeat last line of chorus
