Mary Ann Regrets
recorded by Burl Ives           [3/4 time]
written by Harland Howard
 
C                                             G7
I saved up my money to buy my sweetheart some flowers
                                                 C
For Saturday's date and I restlessly counted the hours
                                      C7           F
Then today in the mail I received this short little note
    G7                                                 C
And I broke down inside at the message that her mother wrote
 
                                         G7
Mary Ann regrets she's unable to see you again
                                                        C
We're leaving for Europe next week she'll be busy 'till then
                                                C7           F
They know that she loves me but poor boys don't fit in their plan
   G7                                   C
Goodbye good luck goodbye my sweet Mary Ann
 
                                                     G7
The weeks have gone by not a word have I heard since then
                                                  C
In the papers I read of the far away places she's been
                                   C7       F
I can't eat I can't sleep for over and over again
   G7                                           C
My mind reads that letter and I cry for my Mary Ann
 
Repeat #2
                                          G7
My Mary Ann died they say she just wasted away
                                                C
If I could have seen her I know she'd be living today
                                       C7      F
For we loved each other and if they had left us alone
  G7                                            C
Today she'd be wearing my ring not a blanket of stone

Repeat #2
