[Verse 1]
Am                G
She grew up in an Indiana town
      D                      Am
Had a good lookin' momma who never was around
        Am                    G
But she grew up tall, and she grew up right
          D                  Am
With them Indiana boys on an Indiana night
 
          Am                     G
Well, she moved down here at the age of eighteen
    D                           Am
She blew the boys away, it was more than they'd seen
Am                      G
I was introduced and we both started groovin'
    D                         Am
She said “I dig ya baby but I got to keep movin'”
Am   G  D               Am
...on,    keep movin' on
 
[Chorus]
Em7
Last dance with Mary Jane
                              A
One more time to kill the pain
Em7
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm
                        A   G
Tired of this town again
 
[Verse 2]
      Am               G
Well, I don't know but I've been told
    D                    Am
You never slow down, you never grow old
    Am                    G
I'm tired of screwing up, tired of going down
D                Am
Tired of myself, tired of this town
Am        G
Oh my my, oh hell yes
D                   Am
Honey, put on that party dress
Am              G
Buy me a drink, sing me a song
D                          Am
Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long
 
[Chorus]
Em7
Last dance with Mary Jane
                              A
One more time to kill the pain
Em7
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm
                        A   G
tired of this town again
 
[Verse 3]
        Am              G
There's pigeons down on Market Square
 D                     Am
She's standing in her underwear
Am                  G
Lookin' down from a hotel room
D                 Am
Nightfall will be coming soon
Am        G
Oh my my, oh hell yes
       D                   Am
You've got to put on that party dress
       Am                     G
It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone
  D                     Am
I hit my last number, I walked to the road
 
[Chorus]
Em7
Last dance with Mary Jane
                              A
One more time to kill the pain
Em7
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm
                        A   G
Tired of this town again
