INTRO: (Bass run, ) repeat VERSE:1 My Maria, don't you know I've come a long, long way. I've been longin' to see her, when she's around, she takes my blues away. Sweet Maria, little sunlight surely hurts my eyes. I'm a lonely dreamer on a highway in the sky. Maria-- (Oh Maria, I love you girl. Oh my Maria). Maria-- (Oh Maria, I } love you girl. Maria I love you.) VERSE:2 My Maria, there was some blue and sorrowed times. Just my thoughts about you, bring back, my peace of mind. Gypsy Lady, your a miracle work for me. You set my soul free, like a ship sailing on the sea. BRIDGE: She is the sunlight, when the, skies are grey. She treats me so right. Lady, take me away. CHORUS: SOLO: (like chorus)
