Verse
Said her name was marie
D (ring)
From the banks of the lee
G (ring)
With the prettiest eyes my own had ever seen
Bm (ring) A (ring)
Her hair like ripples
D (ring)
They danced with the tide
G (ring)
As our hearts washed away to the sea
D (ring) A (ring) D (ring)
Was she sent down from the heavens above
RE SOL
Her breath pure as whiskey my heart fell in love
RE SIm
Now the devil is courtin' a different tune
RE SOL
And I laugh as the tears wash the rain
RE LA RE
Tell me why no one`s listenin?
SOL RE
Is there nothing at all left to say
LA RE
In a world so unforgiving
SOL RE
You mean more to me each every day
LA SIm
So may the living be dead in our wake
SOL RE LA RE
D, G, D, A, D
One cold winters night behind the clouds stars did hide
RE SOL
And the ghost of our souls thanking Christ we're alive
SIm LA
Our spirits they crackled with lovers first sight
RE SOL
Till the mornin' came fresh with a new
RE LA RE
Will you dance with me now heavens child sang the clown
RE SOL
We`ve nothing left to lose but your wings and my frown
RE SIm
Where over the hills where the valleys will ring
RE SOL
To the sound of our love singin' true
RE LA RE
Tell me why no one`s listenin?
SOL RE
Is there nothing at all left to say

In a world so unforgiving

D, G, D, A, D
But the summer sun is melting now
SIm LA
With the leaves i`ll soon be gone
SOL RE
Will you have the strength when the emptiness
RE LA
Shadows fall
SOL
Or will your aching heart be ripped apart
SIm LA
By the beating from the storm
SOL RE
Or will howling gales like yesterdays be gone
RE LA SOL
Yeah be gone... be gone
