[G] [C]
[G] [C] Mary [Am] Ann was a waitress at the circus, [C] Van was a writer [Gm] for the Delaware locale observer,
Just 21 [Am] and just two months out of the service, [F] This didn't happen I lived so [G] we had to wear a [C] mask.
[G]
[C] Mary [Am] Ann introduced herself to Van, [Em] She [F] said, Do you like the menu [G] or do you need me to read it [C] to you?
Half way angry, [Am] half turned on and half confused, [F] Well he took a mighty arm and [G] went out back to make a match,
And [C] he said, So long [Am] to my former [F] life, To a worry [G] life, So long,
[C] so long, [Am] To a harder [F] life, [G] To a trouble [C] life, So long.
Lying there [Am] under the soft glow of the sunrise, [C] The moon was still awake and [G] all the generators lowly [C] humming,
She picked a flower [E] and fastened it on to his bad [A] eyes, She [F] said, Come on let's get married [G] I think we might get along,
[C] So [Am] long to my former [F] life, To a selfish [G] life, So [C] long, so [Am] long, To a bitter life, [G] To a trouble [C] life, So long.

Well Danny was an old [Am] poet, Couldn't dance he [F] never slept, He had nightmares every night of [C] rain and fire on those bloody beaches,
Just then the dew dropped from the [A] flower and he [F] wept, Mary Ann you are a melody [G] and I think I wrote a song,
[C] So long [Am] to my former [F] life, To a worry [G] life, So long,
[C] so [Am] long, To a worried life, [F] [G] To a wasted life, [C] So long.
We all say, So [Am] long, to those memories, [F] Everything we [G] can't let go, So long,
[C] so [Am] long, To those memories, [F] [G] To our selfish [C] selves, So long.
[F] [G] To our selfish [Am] selves, So long,
