Mary Janes Last Dance

Tom Petty / Tom Petty & the heartbreakers: Greatest Hits (1992)

Intro: |: Am G D Am :|
Am G
She grew up in an Indiana town,
D Am
Had a good lookin' mama who never was around.
Am G
But she grew up tall and she grew up right,
D Am |: Am G 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 Am
I was introduced and we both started groovin',
D Am
She said: "I dig you baby - but I gotta keep movin' - on, keep movin' on".
Em7 A
Last dance with Mary Jane - One more time to kill the pain.
Em7 A G
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm Tired of this town again.
 
Well I don't know, but I've been told, 
You never slow down, you never grow old. 
I'm tired of screwing up, I'm tired of bein' down. 
I'm tired of myself, I'm tired of this town. 
 
Oh my my, oh hell yes, 
Honey, put on that party dress. 
Buy me a drink, sing me a song, 
Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long 
There's pidgeons down in Market Square - She's standin' in her underwear. 
Lookin' down from a hotel room - Nightfall will be comin' soon. 
 
Oh my my, oh hell yes, 
You've got to put on that party dress. 
It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone, 
I hit the last number, I walked to the road. 
There's pidgeons down in Market Square - She's standin' in her underwear. 
Lookin' down from a hotel room - Nightfall will be comin' soon.
