F                 C
Oh Mary don't you weep for me

[Verse 1]
F                          C
Jimmy sent a letter to his bride back home
                         F
For three long years now he's been gone
                          Bb
He left her cryin' on her wedding day
    F                 C             F             F#
And went to fight the battle of the Blue and Gray
 
 
[Chorus]
F#                C#
Oh Mary don't you weep for me
                 F#
Oh Mary just you wait for me
    B                   F#
The war's gonna soon be over
F#
Oh Mary don't you weep
 
 
[Verse 2]
F#                     C#
Mary's young heart was filled with joy
                                 F#
When she got the letter from her soldier boy
                           B
His words of love made her heart beat fast
    F#             C#            F#           G
But little did she know it would be the last
 
 
[Chorus]
G                 D
Oh Mary don't you weep for me
                 G
Oh Mary just you wait for me
    C                   G
The battle will soon be over
G
Oh Mary don't you weep
 
 
[Verse 3]
   G               D
On that same day Atlanta burned down
                   G
Her soldier boy he fell to the ground
                           C
Now Mary sits alone by the candle light
    G         D           G
And reads his letter over every night
 
 
[Chorus]
G                 D
Oh Mary don't you weep for me
                 G
Oh Mary just you wait for me
    C                   G
The war's gonna soon be over
G
Oh Mary don't you weep
 
 
[Chorus]
G                 D
Oh Mary don't you weep for me
                 G
Oh Mary just you wait for me
    C                      G
The battle's gonna soon be over
G
Oh Mary don't you weep
 
 
[Outro]
G
Oh Mary don't you weep
G
Oh Mary don't you weep
G
Oh Mary don't you weep
