C F C Gb Am
Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning
Am/G F D G G7
when through the sleepy haze I see her lying there
C F C Gb Am
soft as the rain that falls on summer flowers
Am/G F D G C B/C
warm as the sunlight shining on her golden hair
Am G
when I awake and see her there so close beside me
Am F Am
I want to take her in my arms
D7 G G7
the ache is there so deep inside ohhh
nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning
chasing the rainbow in her dreams so far away
and when she turns to touch me I kiss her face so softly
and then my Mary wakes to love another day
(a piece of music, the same chords as the couplets)
and Mary's there in summer days or stormy weather
she doesn't carem the right or wrong, the love we share
we share together
nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the evening
kissed by the shades of night and starlight in her hair
and as we walk, I hold her close beside me
all our tomorrows for a lifetime we will share
