Mary Jo - Belle and Sebastian


-----------------------------


Tabbed By Caz1977

Great song, simple is best, as with most of Belle and Sebastian's songs, especially the
ones. I've tabbed this version with alternate chords
for a different key a full step lower than the song as it's easier to play
with simpler chords if you don't want to play along with the song. They're
listed below.

You're [B]reading a book, "The State I Am In"

A sorry tale of [A]action and the [F#m]men you left for
[A]Women, and the [F#m]men you left for
[A]Intrigue, and the [F#m]men you left for [E]dead

Life is never [F#m]dull in your [G#m]dreams
A pity that it [A]never works out, [E]Mary

A sorry tale of [A]action and the [F#m]men you left for
[A]Women, and the [F#m]men you left for

[E]The men you left for dead
