Mary In the Morning:Al Martino
[Verse]
C Dm7 Em F
Nothings quite as pretty...as Mary in the morning,
Am F D G
When through a sleepy haze I see her lying there.
C Dm7 Em F
Soft as the rain...that falls on summer flowers,
Am F D G C
Warm as the sunlight shining on her golden hair. Mmmm, mmm.
[Chorus]
Am Em Am7 D G
When I awake and...see her there so close beside me,
Am Em
I want to take...her in my arms,
Am7 D D7 G F Em Dm
the ache is there so deep inside me.
[Verse]
C Dm7 Em F
Nothing's quite as pretty...as Mary in the morning,
Am F D G
Chasing rainbows in her dreams so far away.
C Dm7 Em F
And when she turns to touch me...I kiss her face so softly,
Am F D G C
And my Mary wakes to love another day. Aaa..ha.
[Chorus]
Am Em Am Em Am D G
And Ma..ry's there...in sunny days or stormy weather.
Am Em Am Em Am
She doesnt't care...cause right or wrong,
Am7 D D7 G
the love we share, we share together.
[Verse]
C Dm7 Em F
Nothings quite as pretty...as Mary in the evening,
Am F D G
Kissed by the shades of night and starlight in her hair.
C Dm7 Em F
And as we walk...I hold her close beside me.
Am F D G C F C
All our tomorrows for a lifetime we will share. Mm..mm, mmm, mmm.
