Mean Mary - Where Were You
CAPO: 5th Fret
[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
C D
You say I’ve aged just like cherry wine_____
C D
And you wanna press your drunken lips on mine_____
Well, forbidden fruit tastes sweet when you are young
C D
You don’t care about the pain until the bee has stung______
[Chorus]
Where were you when I was calling
D
Where were you when I was naïve
Where were you when I was falling
D
Gentle like the dogwood leaves
Where were you when I was simple
D
Where were you when I was kind
Pulling up the wildflowers for you
D
Where were you when I was blind
[Verse 2]
C D
What happened to that girl who played with fireflies_____
C D
Always looking up to you with her heart in her eyes_____
Well, it only takes one shot to fear a gun
C
And few drops of sweat can make you dread the sun_____
D
Oh, dread the burning sun
[Chorus]
Where were you when I was calling
D
Where were you when I was naïve
Where were you when I was falling
D
Gentle like the dogwood leaves
Where were you when I was simple
D
Where were you when I was kind
Pulling up the wildflowers for you
D
Where were you when I was blind
[Outro]
Where were you
D
Where were you
Where were you
D
Where were you
