Oh Maria Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]You[Em] could never compromi[A]se
[Bm]I co[Em]uld never sat
[A]isfy you at [D]all
Always thought you had [G]gentle [A]eyes[D]
Then you've had me insti[G]tutionalized
[A](Twice befor[Em]e)

[Verse 2]
Before I was [A]a young [Em]man
Now look at me,
I'm just [A]younger than [D]old
The years don't seem [G]to touch you
[D]It makes me wonder what
[G]you sold
Oh, my Mari[D]a

[Verse 3]
[F#m]
I'll never [Em]change you,
I [D]know, I [A]know[G]
I need to see you
[F#m]That never c[Em]hanges, oh n[Bm]o

[Verse 4]
[Em]You lived on the 7[A]th floor
[Em]It was far from heaven b[A]ut it meant more
[D]You said things that were hard to [G]ignore
[D]My conversation makes [G]you bored

[Verse 5]
[Em]You always hated wed[A]ding bells
[Em]You'd go out riding with
[A]the Hell's and say
[D]Life is for the tak[G]ing
[E]Life is for the tak[Bm]ing

[Verse 6]
[G]Oh, my Maria
[F#m]I'll never c[Em]hange you, I[D] know, I[A] know
[G]I need to see you
[F#m]That never c[Em]hanges, o[Bm]h no

[Verse 7]
[A]So how's it gonna be, Mar[D]ia?
[A]Will it be you and me?
Or [D]will it be
[Em]Five more years of counting my tears
Five more years of living in [Bm]fear

[Verse 8]
[A]I beg for my supper at night
[D]If [A]this is love then it don't feel rig[D]ht
[Em]And my heart's burning out of control
[Bm]They gave her five but she's
out [D]on parole

[Verse 9]
Hey, [D]hey, hey
This girl is leading me [Em]astray[D]

[Verse 10]
Saw a [Em]photograph of [A]you today
Your [Em]eyes look tired but
[A]you haven't aged
[D]And now I see that you
[G]made the front page
[D]Married for the money and
you [G]blew him away

[Verse 11]
[Em]Oh Maria, when you were [A]doing time
You only [Em]had five words [A]on your [D]mind
Life is for the tak[G]ing
[E]Life [Em]is fo[E]r the taking[Bm]

[Verse 12]
[G]Oh, my Maria
[D]I'll never [Em]change you, I [D]know, I [A]know
[G]I need to see you
[F#m]That never c[Em]hanges, o[Bm]h no

[Verse 13]
[G]Oh, my Maria
[D]I'll never [Em]change you, I [D]know, I [A]know
[G]I need to see you
[F#m]That never c[Em]hanges, o[Bm]h no

[Verse 14]
[A]I beg for my supper at [D]night
[A]If this is love then it don't feel [D]right
[Em]And my heart's burning out of control
[Bm]They gave her five but she's
out [D]on parole

[Verse 15]
Hey, hey, [D]hey
This girl is leading me [Em]astray[D]
Listen, what I say
This girl is leading me [Em]astray
