Biography:
Spring 2004 was the year when The Marys sprung out of their garage in Rex, GA with a vision to rock the music scene by combining old-fashioned sound with the modern indie-rock attitude. Jamming to the tunes of AC/DC, The Kinks, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, and the likes, the band wrote songs that also had a little hint of Jet, Velvet Revolver, The Strokes, and others.
The Marys are:
Bernard Balatbat (24 y/o) – lead vocal / rhythm guitar
Brian Balatbat (21 y/o) – lead Guitar / backup vocal

The Marys - The Day Roy Orbison Died
[Verse 1]
G
I came home early one fine Wednesday morning
Em
Something was waiting for me
C
There without warning, something had happened
G D
I couldn't believe my eyes
[Verse 2]
G
I turned the knob and the front door swung open
Em
The closets were empty, our picture was broken
C
Either you'd packed up and left
G
Or we'd been burglarized
[Chorus]
D Am C D
Oo-ooh, that doesn't matter to me
Am C D
That's just a bad memory, woah-oh
Am C
The day that you picked to leave
D G
Was the day Roy Orbison died
[Verse 3]
G
I don't think some things you ever get used to
Em
I don't think some things you're really supposed to
C
I see your face every time
G D
That I turn out the light
[Verse 4]
G
But the song that was playing the first time I kissed you
Em
Is the song that is playing tonight when I miss you
C
I don't think some things
G
Are ever supposed to seem right
[Chorus]
D Am C D
Oo-ooh, that doesn't matter to me
Am C D
That's just a bad memory, woah-oh
Am C
The day that you picked to leave
D G
Was the day Roy Orbison died
[Verse 5]
G
My sister only had three 45 records
Em
And she used to play them over and over
C
Until she had every note
G D
Every word memorized
[Verse 6]
G
And every time I hear "Only the Lonely"
Em
And every time I hear "Oh Pretty Woman"
C
Or "Crying"
G
I feel like he's still alive
[Chorus]
D Am C D
Oo-ooh, that doesn't matter to me
Am C D
That's just a bad memory, woah-oh
