                                              Fig #1 
I heard they seen you yesterday in Charlestown 
                                           Fig #1 
I heard about that story going round round 
               C                              G 
All I got's a book of love with pages worn clean through 
    C                            G 
A circle of gold and one bleeding tattoo 
                                  Fig #1 
Mary,Mary, where have you gone to 
                                   Fig #1 
Mary, Mary, where have you gone to 
 
 
                                                      Fig #1 
This town's a secret shared and shattered in a sad song 
                                                   Fig #1 
Just torn and tattered pieces of a love gone wrong 
         C                         G 
Hearts of stone and eyes gone deep blue 
         C                      G 
Lonely houses filled two by two 
                                 Fig #1 
Mary,Mary, where have you gone to 
                                 Fig #1 
Mary, Mary, where have you gone to

                                   Fig #1 
Summer storm blew in soft and cool 
                                         Fig #1 
Onto slinky town streets where love ruled 
                 C                                      G 
Now there's just a misty sidewalk with the rain drifting through 
C                                 G 
A lipstick case and one lonely red shoe 
                                
                                 Fig #1 
Mary,Mary, where have you gone to 
 
                                             Fig #1 
I heard they seen you yesterday in Charlestown
