Crazy Mary

Victoria Williams

BShe lived on a curve in the road

GIn an old tar paper shack

BOn the south side of the town on the Gwrong side of the tracks

BSometimes on the way in to town

GWe say 'Mama, can we stop Gand give her a ride?'

BSometimes we did, Abut her hands Gflew from her side

GWild eye... ACrazy... BMary G B G B

BDown a long dirt road, Gpast the Parson's place

BTheir old blue car, Gwe used to race

BLittle country store, Awith a sign tagged to the side

B G

Said 'NO L-O-I-T-E-R-I-N-G ALLOWED'

BUnderneath that sign allows Gcongregated quite a crowd

BTake a bottle drink it Adown, pass Git around (drink it down)

Take a bottle drink it down, drink,

(pass it around) pass it around (pass it around)

Take a bottle drink it down, pass it, pass it a, pass it a-around

BOne night thunder cracked, Mercy backed outside her windowsile

EDreamed I was flying high above the trees, over the hills

BLooked down into the house of Mary

F♯mTerrible thought(?), Enewspaper covered walls

Band Mary rising up above it all...

Bah... Eah... B B E B B

BNext morning on the way into town,

GSaw some skid marks and followed them around

Bover the curb through the Gfields into the house of BMary

You that never have done nothin' but build to destroy

You play with my world like it's your little toy

You put a gun in my hand then you hide from my eyes

Then you turn and run farther when the fast bullets fly

Like Judas of old you lie and deceive

A world war can't be won, and you want me to believe

But I see through your eyes and I see through your brain

Like I see through the water that runs down my drain

You that fasten all the triggers for the others to fire

Then you sit back and watch while the death count gets

higher

You hide in your mansions while the young people's blood

Flows out of their bodies and gets buried in the mud

You've thrown the worst fear that can ever be hurled

Fear to bring children into the world

For threatening my baby, unborn and unnamed

You ain't worth the blood that runs in your veins

How much do I know to talk out of turn

You might say that I'm young, you might say I'm unlearned

But there's one thing I know, though I'm younger than you

Even Jesus would never forgive what you do

Let me ask you one question: is your money that good?

Will it buy you forgiveness? Do you think that it could?

I think you will find when your death takes its toll

All the money you made won't ever buy back your soul

And I hope that you die and your death will come soon

I'll follow your casket through the pale afternoon

And I'll watch while you're lowered into your death bed

Then I'll stand over your grave till I'm sure that you're

dead

Rockin' in the Free World

Neil Young

Intro/Verse:

For the verses you basically need: Em, D and C

but the strumming pattern and fretting actually

involve a G. Here's how to strum the Em measure

(intro and verse alike):

Em-

(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +)

DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP

B - $ $ - $ $ $

Meaning it is an Em chord for the whole measure,

play only the bass note (the E string) on the first

beat (indicated by the 'B' -from Bass- above), the '-' means don't

strum on the strings and a '$' means play the chord indicated

above (Em in this case).

The D and C measure is strummed as follows:

D N C N

- - - -

DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP

$ $ $ $ - $ $ $

Meaning play a D chord for the first beat then on the

down stroke of the second beat hit the strings without

any fretting (indicated by 'N' above), this would actually

sound as a G (especially that you're most likely to hit only

the D, G, B and E strings). Then directly play a C chord on

the up-stroke of the second beat (in fact you'd ready your fingers

for the C chord while hitting the "G chord"). The same trick is

done at the last up-stroke of the 4th beat where you, again, play the

open strings just before hitting the bass of the Em chord of the

following measure (as indicated in the Em measure).

Chorus

As for the chorus: it is G, D, C and Em which is easy to play:

The 3 measures of G D and C are the same:

G- D C

DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP

$ - ($) $ - $ $ $

The ($) means optional. In fact you'd interleave all kinds of strumming

patterns here.

The last measure (4th) of each line in the chorus goes like this:

C Em

DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP

$ $ $ $ - $ $ $

Here you'd notice that in fact you'd naturally hammer on

the Em on the upstroke of the 2nd beat.

Between chorus and verses:

Basically 4 measures of A (interleaved with A7) anyways if you want

to get a flavor of how it is played (read I play it ;-):

1) 2)

A- A7- A7- A- A7-

DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP

$ - $ - $ $ $ $ - $ $ $ $ $ $ $

3) 4)

A7- A- A7- A7- A-

DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP

- $ $ $ $ $ $ $ - $ $ - $ - $ -

The second time the bridge is played a different pattern is used

but who cares (I'm tired of typing ;-).

Sounds complicated? not really.
