E DAfter all the jacks are in their
Aboxes
E D AAnd the clowns have all gone to bed
E DYou can hear happiness staggering
A on down the street
B D G G# AFootsteps dressed in red
B D G G# A G G# AAnd the wind whispers Mary
E D AA broom is drearily sweeping
E DUp the broken peices of
Ayesterday's life
E D ASomewhere a queen is weeping
B D G G# ASomewhere a king has no wife
B D G G# A G G# AAnd the wind cries Mary

E DThe traffic lights turn blue
Atomorrow
E DAnd shine the emptyness down on my
Abed
E D AThe tiny island sags downstream
B D G G# ACause the life that lived is dead
B D G G# A G G# AAnd the wind screams Mary
E D AWill the wind ever remember
E D AThe names it has blown in the past
E DWith its crutch, its old age, and
A its wisdom
B DIt whispers no, this will be the
G G# Alast
B D G G# A GAnd the wind cries Mary
