LYRICS:
play intro
D E Esus4 D#+
Oh my Ma - ri - a
D E Esus4 D#+
Seems you got me in your spell once more
D E Esus4 D#+
Must be there''s a storm on the way
D C#5 F#m E
You taught me to know when you''re near
D C#5 F#m
Mmmm...
In your glance recall my shady days of youth
Stealing altar wine and microphones
Not so blindly fueling my need
As rock and roll fueled my dreams
D C#5 D#+
You know rock and roll fueled my dreams yeah
BRIDGE 1
E E#º F#m
Back then you saw me as this child in great need of the wildest sin
E D#+
How sweet your grace I stumbled in
E E#º
And how completely you waved as I laughed in your face
F#m E D#+
Oh my Maria
F#m E D#+
Oh my Maria
play MARIA figure
Oh my Maria
how you stood for strength and sanity
Now there is someone poking holes in thee
I see now why you''ve called me near
D C#5 D#+
Maria my song can you hear
BRIDGE 2
D
I know you see the silence on the sidewalk and the anger in the street
D#+
And the voices of all these children coming up to my feet
E E#º F#m
And we sing your song in vain as some preacher sees his reign come down
E D#+
Maria
F#m E D#+
Oh my sweet Maria
E E#º
In the silence on the hill you know I''ll be dreamin'' of you still
F#m E D#+
Now the one Maria
F#m E D#+
Oh my Maria
play MARIA figure
Maria
