[A] Thank you very much indeed, right, we're going to do a number this time, a song that was written [Abm] specially for our new album.
This one is very, very popular for us at the moment, it's called Marie is Heading Out to California.
[A] [D]
[A] [D] [A] [E]
[A] The moon shone [D] down serenely on [A] Manhattan
I [D] was here in New [A] York City [E] for the show
An [A] Irish [D] band was playing [A] out in Brooklyn
And the weatherman [E] said it [A] was five below
It [D] was then I [E] saw Maria [A] for the first time
[D] And soon we [A] were talking [E] like old friends
[A] She spoke of [D] life in Queens and [A] in the [D] city
[A] Of plans to [E] go to L.A. [A] in the spring
[E] Marie is heading out to [A] California
[D] It's the thing in [A] life she wants to [B] do the [E] most
[A] She's tired of living [D] here in New [A] York City
[D] [A] And tomorrow [E] she'll be leaving for [A] the Falls
She came out here [D] some years ago [A] from Ireland
[D] A lady [A] of the finest [E] social grace
[A] With eyes as lovely [D] as the [A] stars of evening
And the smile of Venus [E] on her [A] charming face
[D] We talked about [E] the old times [A] and the homeland
[D] It was like as if [A] she'd never [E] been away
[A] Marie's [D] heart was back [A] home in [D] Roscommon
[A] As the night rolled [E] gently towards [A] another day
[E] Marie is heading out [A] to California
[D] It's the thing in [A] life she wants [B] to do the [E] most
[A] She's tired of [D] living here in [A] New York City
[D] [A] And tomorrow [E] she'll be leaving [A] for the Falls
I can see the [D] lights a-dancing [A] on the harbor
[D] I am like a [A] lonesome cowboy [E] on the range
[A] I'm saying [D] goodbye to her [A] perhaps forever
There's a feeling [E] in my heart that [A] I find strange
[D] I hope life [E] treats her well [A] in California
[D] There's nothing [A] better once [E] you've known the best
[A] She's leaving [D] now and I'll be [A] missing [D] someone
[A] As that big jet [E] plane will take her [A] to the West
[E] Marie is heading out to [A] California
[D] It's the thing in [A] life she wants to [Bm] do the [B] [E] most
[A] She's tired of [D] living here in [A] New York City
[D] [A] And tomorrow [E] she'll be leaving [A] for the Falls
So tired of living [D] here in New [A] York City
[D] [A] And tomorrow [E] she'll be leaving for [A] the Falls
Yeah, thank you very much indeed
