Verse 1 -
C
Mary, this station is playing every sad song
Am
I remember like we were alive
C
I heard and sung them all from inside of these walls
Am
In a prison cell, where we spent those nights
C
And they burned up the diner where I always used to find her
Am
Licking young boys blood from her claws
C
And I learned about the blues from this kitten I knew
Am
Her hair was raven and her heart was like a tomb
Prechorus-

Everybody leaves, so why, why wouldn't you?

C
Mary, I worried and stalled every night of my life
Am
Better safe than making the party

And I never had a good time, I sat my bedside,
Am
With papers and poetry about Estella
