Marys Eyes Chords

        B
Verse1: Mary's eyes are startling blue
        Abm
And her hair's Newcastle gold
        E                                     F#
And she walks the thin white line between the body and the soul

         B
She's as faithful to her history
     Abm
As a novice to his fast
          E                                  F#
For she's standing on the bones of Ireland's past

Chorus:
      E
She's singing of the troubles
        B           E
And the fire in the land
                           B               F#
'Til I can almost feel the famine slipping through my trembling hand
      E
And i wonder as I hear her,
         B                   E
That the spirit still shines through
                            
                             B     E                 F#    B
And she can reach across the ocean deep and break my heart in two...

         B
Verse 2: Mary's wise and she is foolish
         Abm
She's as constant as the tide
           E                                     F#
For it's a woman's heart that beats beneath that stubborn Irish pride
       B
We are saints and we are sinners

       Abm       F#                  E
We are heros we are theives.  We are all of us beginners on the road to Galilee

Chorus

Instrumental:

Verse 3
          B
So let us hiost a pint of silence
       Abm
To the east where ireland lies
            E
And we will stare across the waters
      F#
For a glimpse of Mary's eyes

       B
We are ships without a harbor
       Abm
We are sailors are on dry land
        E
And the song goes on forever
     F#
Even though the record can't

Chorus
