              D                        D   
What's the matter Mary Jane, you had a hard day 
         D                      D   
As you place the don't disturb sign on the door 
      D                       D     
You lost your place in line again, what a pi - ty
      D                  
You never seem to want to dance anymore 
 
        C   G/B  D
It's a long way down 
         Bb  F   D
On this roller coaster 
     C     G/B    Gm   D
The last chance streetcar 
      Em 
Went off the track
          Asus   A
And you're on it 
 
I hear you're counting sheep again Mary Jane 
What's the point of tryin' to dream anymore 
I hear you're losing weight again Mary Jane 
Do you ever wonder who you're losing it for 
 
Well it's full speed baby 
In the wrong direction 
There's a few more bruises 
If that's the way 
You insist on heading 
 
Please be honest Mary Jane 
Are you happy 
Please don't censor your tears 
 
You're the sweet crusader 
And you're on your way 
You're the last great innocent 
And that's why I love you 
 
So take this moment Mary Jane and be selfish 
Worry not about the cars that go by 
All that matters Mary Jane is your freedom 
Keep warm my dear, keep dry 
 
Tell me 
Tell me 
What's the matter Mary Jane...
