Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning
Am F D7 G7
When through a sleepy haze I see her lying there
C F C G7
Soft as the rain that falls on summer flowers
Am F D7 G7 C
Warm as the sunlight shining on her golden hair mmm
Am G
When I wake and see her there so close beside me
Am F
I want to take her in my arms
D7 G7
The ache is there so deep inside me
C F C G7
And nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning
Am F D7 G7 #
Chasing a rainbow in her dream so far away
C F C G7 Am
And when she turns to touch it I kiss her face so softly
F D7 G7 C
My Mary wakes to love another day mmm
Am G7
My Mary's there in sunny days or stormy weather
Am F
She doesn't care cause right or wrong
D7 G7
The love we share we share together
C F C G7
And nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the evening
Am F D7 G7
Kissed by the shades of night and starlight on her hair
C F C G7
And as we walk I hold her close beside me
Am F D7 G7 C
All of our tomorrows for lifetime we'll share mmm
F C G7 C
Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning
