David Allan Coe - Maria Is A Mystery guitar chord

David Allan Coe - Maria Is A Mystery

F Bb F C X2

F C

Maria has a music box she winds up most every day

Bb G

Once a week is all it takes, to make the music play

F Bb

Melody is just some childhood lullaby her mother

F C

Used to sing to her.

F C

And the road down to the city, goes right by Maria's door

Bb G

I often walk right by her house on my way to the store

F

Up there where those Italian mothers

Bb C

Dress their shivering bambinos

F

For the rain.

Chorus:

Bb C Bb F

She tells me about Jesus, and all his gallant men

Bb C F

I tell her about fantasy

Bb C F D

Maria she's this lady, on the way down to the river

Bb C F

Maria she's a mystery

Bb C F Bb F C

Maria she's a mystery.

F C

Yeah passing by this morning, I drew a picture in my head

Bb G

Our bodies in some candlelight that glowed upon our skin

F Bb

Maybe if I touched her, she would disappear

C F

Like angels in a dream.

Chorus:

F Bb F C X3
