It was a fine day in the fifth grade
D G G/F# Em7
when Mary May let Bobby walk her home from school
D G G/F# Em7 A/G
he had her books in hand and he was listening to every word she said
D G G/F# Em7 A/G
like it was the gospel of the prophecies
Em7 G/F# G A/G
and he loved the way her hair fell across her dress
Em7 G/F#
went home singing who wrote the book of love
G A/G
and try a little tenderness
D - G - G/F# - Em7 x2
D G G/F#
the next day on the playground
Em7 A/G D G G/F# Em7 A/G
bobby sat Mary down on the swingset behind the sandbox

Chorus:

He said, mary, marry me.
