D
I was
driving down a lonely road
C
G
on a dark and stormy night
D
When a little girl by the roadside
C
D
showed up in my head and eye
G
I stopped, and she got in the back,
D
and in a shaking tone
C
A
She said, my name's Mary,
D
G
please won't you take me home
D
Well, she must have been so frightened
C
G
All alone there in the night
D
There was something strange about her
C
D
Of course, her face was deathly white
G
She sat so pale and quiet
D
In the back seat all alone
C
A
I never will forget that night
D
G
I took Mary home
D
Well, I pulled into the driveway
C
G
Where she told me to go
D
Got out to help her from the car
C
D
And open up the door
G
But I just could not believe my eyes,
D
the backseat was bare
C
A
I looked all around the car,
D
G
C
A
D
G
but Mary wasn't there
D
Well, light shone from the porch,
C
G
someone opened up the door
D
Well, I asked about the little girl
C
D
that I was searching for
G
And then the lady gently smiled
D
and brushed a tear away
C
A
She said it sure was nice of you
D
G
to go out of your way
D
Yeah, but thirteen years ago today
C
G
in a wreck just down the road
Verse 2
G
D
Our darling Mary lost her life
C
and we miss her so
