Mary-Ann Regrets:Burl Ives:
A chart topper in '62.
C G7
1. I saved up my money to buy my sweetheart some flowers,
G7 C
For Saturday's date and I restlessly counted the hours.
C F
Then today in the mail I received this short little note,
F G7
And I broke down inside at the message that her mother
C
wrote.
CHORUS:
C F
'Mary-Ann regrets she's unable to see you again,
F G7
We're leaving for Europe next week, she'll be busy 'till
C
then.'
C
They know that she loves me, but poor boys don't fit in
F
their plan.
F G7 G G7 C
Good-bye, good luck, good-bye my sweet Mary-Ann.
C
2.The weeks have gone by - not a word have I heard
G7
since then.
G7 C
In the papers I read of the far away places she's been.
C F
I can't eat, I can't sleep, for over and over again,
F G7 G G7 C
My mind reads that letter and I cry for my Mary-Ann.
CHORUS:
C G7
3.My Mary-Ann died - they say she just wasted away.
G7 G C
If I could have seen her I know she'd be living today.
C C7 F
For we loved each other and if they had left us alone,
G7 G C
Today she'd be wearing my ring, not a blanket of stone.
CHORUS:
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat!
