Mary Queen of Arkansas Bruce Springsteen
Mary queen of Ar[G]kansas, it's not too early for[C] dreaming
The s[G]ky is grown with cloud seeds sown and a b[C]astard's love can be red[D7]eeming
[G]Mary my queen your s[C]oft hulk is re[Am]viving[Am7]
No you're n[G]ot too late to d[C]esecrate[A7] the servants are just r[G]ising
Well I'm j[G]ust a lonely acrobat, the l[C]ive wire is my trade
I've been a sh[G]ine boy for your acid brat and a wh[C]arf rat of your st[D7]ate
[G]Mary my queen your bl[C]ows for freedom are [Am]missing[Am7]
You're not m[G]an enough for [C]me to hate[A7] or woman enough for k[G]issing
The [Em]big top is for dreamers, we can take the circus all the way to the b[C]order
And the [Em]gallows wait for martyrs whose papers are in [C]order
But I [Em]was not born to l[G]ive to die and y[C]ou were not born for q[Am]ueening[Am7]
It's n[G]ot too late to i[C]nfiltrate[A7] the servants are just l[G]eaving
[G]Mary queen of Arkansas your wh[C]ite skin is deceiving
You w[G]ake and wait ooh to lie in bait and you a[C]lmost got me bel[D7]ieving
But [G]on your bed Mary I can s[C]ee the shadow of a n[Am]oose[Am7]
Oh I d[G]on't understand how you can hold me so t[C]ight[A7] and love me so damn lo[G]ose
But I k[Em]now a place where we can go Mary
Where I can get a good job and start out all over again cl[C]ean
I got c[G]ontacts deep in M[C]exico[A7] where the servants have been se[G]en
