Mary Ann Regrets

C
G7
I saved up my money to buy my sweetheart some flowers
C
For Saturday’s date and I restlessly counted the hours
C7
F
Then today in the mail I received this short little note
G7
C
And I broke down inside at the message that her mother wrote
G7
Mary Ann regrets she’s unable to see you again
C
We’re leaving for Europe next week she’ll be busy ’till then
C7
F
They know that she loves me but poor boys don’t fit in their plan
G7
C
Goodbye good luck goodbye my sweet Mary Ann
G7
The weeks have gone by not a word have I heard since then
C
In the papers I read of the far away places she’s been
C7
F
I can’t eat I can’t sleep for over and over again
G7
C
My mind reads that letter and I cry for my Mary Ann
G7
Mary Ann regrets she’s unable to see you again
C
We’re leaving for Europe next week she’ll be busy ’till then
C7
F
They know that she loves me but poor boys don’t fit in their plan
G7
C
Goodbye good luck goodbye my sweet Mary Ann
G7
My Mary Ann died they say she just wasted away
C
If I could have seen her I know she’d be living today
C7
F
For we loved each other and if they had left us alone
G7
C
Today she’d be wearing my ring not a blanket of stone
G7
Mary Ann regrets she’s unable to see you again
C
We’re leaving for Europe next week she’ll be busy ’till then
C7
F
They know that she loves me but poor boys don’t fit in their plan
G7
C
Goodbye good luck goodbye my sweet Mary Ann
