Mary Lou - Bruce Springsteen
D G C D
Your scrapbook's filled with pictures of all your leading men
G C Am
Well baby don't me picture in there with them
Bm Em C
Don't make me some little girl's dream that can never come true
D
Oh baby, don't do it to me I won't do it to you
G C
Mary Lou, I'm not like all those other guys
Bm Am Bm D
Mary Lou, I won't fill pretty head with their pretty lies
G C
Mary Lou, and dreams that never, never, never ever will come true
Bm Am Bm D
Mary Lou, I don't deserve to hurt and make you cry like you do
G C D
You seen all the romantic movies, you dream to take the boys home
G C Am
But when the action fades you're left all alone
Bm Em C
You deserve better than this, a real love that can grow
D
And I ain't playin' outtakes, girl from some late late show, no
G C
Mary Lou, you're not like all those others girls
Bm Am Bm D
Mary Lou, so afraid to shake up that neat little world
(Sax solo) | G | G | C | C | Bm | Am | Bm | D |
| G | G | C | C | Bm | Am | Bm | D
G C D
Every night you go out lookin' for true love's satisfaction
G C Am
But you always end up settling for just lights, camera, action
Bm Em C
In another cameo role with some bit player you're befriending
D
You're gonna go broken-hearted lookin' for that happy ending
G C
Mary Lou, I've seen all those movies too
Bm Am Bm D
Mary Lou, well I know the hurt too much dreaming can do
G C
Mary Lou, you're gonna end up just another lonely ticket sold
Bm Am Bm D
Mary Lou, crying alone in the theater as the credits roll
G | G | C | G
Let's go
