Capo 3rd fret
[Verse 1]
F C F C7
She climbs a tree and scrapes her knee, her dress has got a tear
F C F C7
She waltzes on her way to mass and whistles on the stair
Dm Bbm7
And underneath her wimple, she has curlers in her hair
Gm7 C7
I even heard her singing in the abbey
[Verse 2]
F C F C7
She's always late for chapel, but her penitence is real
F C F C7
She's always late for everything, except for every meal
Dm Bbm7
I hate to have to say it, but I very firmly feel
Gm7 C7
Maria's not an asset to the abbey
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm C7
I'd like to say a word in her behalf
Dm Gm7 C7
Maria makes me laugh
[Chorus]
F C7
How do you solve a problem like Maria?
F C7
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
F Bb
How do you find the word that means Maria?
G Bbm7 C7
A flibbertijibbet, a will-o'-the wisp, a clown
F C7
Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her
F Gm
Many a thing she ought to understand
Fm C7
But how do you make her stay and listen to all you say?
Fm C7
How do you keep a wave upon the sand?
F Gm
Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria?
Gmaj7 C7 F
How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand?
[Verse 3] (a capella)
When I'm with her I'm confused, out of focus and bemused
And I never know exactly where I am
Unpredictable as weather, she's as flighty as a feather
She's a darling, she's a demon, she's a lamb
[Verse 4]
F C7 F C7
She'd out pester any pest, drive a hornet from its nest
F C7 F
She could throw a whirling dervish out of whirl
Gm Gm Gm Gm
She is gentle, she is wild, she's a riddle, she's a child
A7 A7 C7
She's a headache, she's an angel, she's a girl
[Chorus]
