1. Nothing's quite as pretty       as Mary in the morning

Am                            F               - D                            G

    when through a sleepy haze         I see her lying there.

C                      F   - C                      G

    Soft as the rain        that falls on summer flowers,

Am                     F                       D                     G     C

    warm as the sunlight shining on her golden hair, um.

 

Am                                                                       G

    When I awake and see her there so close beside me,

Am                      - F

    I want to take        her in my arms,

                         D                      G            - G7

    the ache is there so deep inside me.

2. Nothing's quite as pretty        as Mary in the morning,

Am             F                          D                     G

    chasing rainbows in her dreams so far away.

C                          F                       - C                 G

    And when she turns to touch it,      I kiss her face so softly.

Am              F                    D                   G     C

    and my Mary wakes to love another day, um.

 

Am                                                                     G

    And Mary's there in sunny days or stormy weather,

Am                           - F

    she doesn't care,       'cause right or wrong,

                           D                         G         - G7

    the love we share, we share together.

3. Nothing's quite as pretty        as Mary in the evening

Am                        F                              D                    G

    kissed by the shades of night and starlight on her hair.

C                     F     - C                     G

    And as we walk,        I hold her close beside me,

Am                F                  D                        G

    all our tomorrows for a lifetime we will share.
