[Bb] This year's covered in [F] rain
You're [Bb] covered in babies

Covered [Bb] in wilderness
Covered [F] in stains

You cast [Eb] aside the shroud
[Bb] Of another man _
[F] Spurs the world _ proud
You [Bb] greet another sight
You lose another moment _ _
Heartless, unsightly
_ All the way to the _ street Murder me
_ _ [Gm]
Jesus said, Mother, I couldn't [Eb] stay another [Bb] day longer _
_ [Gm] Life is great, but it needs a kiss [Bb] upon her _ _ [Bb] face
While the angels sing their praises in a blaze of glory
Mary [C] stays behind the stars
[Bb] Cleaning up the place
_ Oh, Mary
_ She [Eb] moves [Bb] behind me
[Eb] She leads us in a prayer _
Prayer everywhere
_ [C] _ Every time [Bb] the snow drips
Every way it [Eb] flashes _
Even when [Bb] the night is
She's [F] always _ there
_ [Bb] Jesus said, Mother, [Eb] I couldn't stay another [Bb] day longer
_ _ Life is great, but it [Eb] needs a kiss upon her [Bb] _ face
