Intro C  F  C  F
 
Verse 1
 
C                 F      C      G      E
Nothing's quite as pretty  as Mary in the morning
Am             F            D             G
When through a sleepy haze I see her lyin' there
C          F       C        G      E
Soft as the rain that falls on summer flowers
Am          F               D             G        C
Warm as the sunlight shinin' on her golden hair mmmmm
 
Chorus 1
 
Am                                     G
When I wake and see her there so close beside me
Am             F
I want to take     her in my arms
            D             G
The ache is there so deep inside me
 
Verse 2
 
 C                    F      C      G     E
And nothing's quite as pretty  as Mary in the morning
Am        F             D            G
Chasin' a rainbow in her dream so far away
C           F                 C         G       E
And when she turns to touch it  I kiss her face so softly
Am          F        D           G       C
And my Mary wakes to love another day mmmmmmm
 
Chorus 2
 
Am                                      G
My Mary's there in sunny days or stormy weather
Am               F
She doesn't care 'cause right or wrong
            D              G
The love we share we share together
 
Verse 3
 
C                  F        C      G     E
And nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the evening.
Am            F              D                    G
Kissed by the shades of night and starlight on her hair
C        F  C             G     E
And as we walk    I hold her close beside me
Am        F          D                G        C  F
all our tomorrows for lifetime we will share mmmmmm

Nothing's quite as pretty   as Mary in the morning
C                 F    C         F
Nothing's quite as pretty   as Mary in the morning
