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
          D                    G
Her breath pure as whiskey my heart fell in love
      D                         Bm
Now the devil is courtin' a different tune
        D                           G
And I laugh as the tears wash the rain
         D                  A             D

Tell me why no one`s listenin?
        G                D
Is there nothing at all left to say
        A                    D
In a world so unforgiving
       G                    D
You mean more to me each every day
           A                       Bm
So may the living be dead in our wake
G             D        A                D

D, G, D, A, D

One cold winters night behind the clouds stars did hide
       D                                                  G
And the ghost of our souls thanking Christ we're alive
        Bm                                       A
Our spirits they crackled with lovers first sight
      D                                 G
Till the mornin' came fresh with a new
        D               A                 D
Will you dance with me now heavens child sang the clown
        D       G
We`ve nothing left to lose but your wings and my frown
        D       Bm
Where over the hills where the valleys will ring
        D                                 G
To the sound of our love singin' true
        D          A            D

Tell me why no one`s listenin?
        G                D
Is there nothing at all left to say
        A                    D
In a world so unforgiving
       G                    D
You mean more to me each every day
           A                       Bm
So may the living be dead in our wake
G             D        A                D

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