Mother Mary    (Foxboro Hot Tubs)

Intro:
      

Verse 1:
                 
Do you want    to elope tonight
                  
Gettin' lost in the shadows
                     
All dressed up like a switchblade knife
                          
Let's hang in love from the gallows
                      
Or we can take a walk around the lake
                      
There's a garden in the park    there
                           
Under the stars next-to-the fireside
                 
Anywhere is better than   here


Chorus 1 (ooh’s begin lines 1-3):
                      
Oh Mother Mary, take my hand
                            
I'll be a saint, I'll be your man
                                   
I'll do most anything, 'cause I don't care
                      
Oh Mother Mary, take my hand 

bum-bum-bum; bum-bum-ba-dada-dada  [x2]
 

Verse 2:
                  
Take a ride on the midnight train  (ooh)
                       
We'll fall asleep at the station
                      
Too much wine, driving me insane (ooh)
                           
And then we'll miss our destination
                                 
Oh well, too bad, who cares, it's alright (ooh)
                         
As long as we will stick together
                            
In Hell we’ll rain arrows of sunshine (ooh)
                               
We'll watch it rise and shine forever


Chorus 2 (ooh’s begin lines 1-3):
                      
Oh Mother Mary, take my hand
                            
I'll be a saint, I'll be your man
                                   
I'll do most anything, 'cause I don't care
                      
Oh Mother Mary, take my hand 

bum-bum-bum; bum-bum-ba-dada-dada  [x2]
 


Solo (over verse):

Chorus 3:
                      
Oh Mother Mary, take my hand
                            
I'll be a saint, I'll be your man
                                   
I'll do most anything, 'cause I don't care
                      
Oh Mother Mary, take my hand 

bum-bum-bum; bum-bum-ba-dada-dada  [x2]
bum-bum-bum; ba-dum!       [ends just before 3rd beat]
