Intro: (2 bars) Verse: 1 I put on my finest summer dress So light and thin, it was my best I brushed my hair, I held my breath I went out to face the wilderness I went out to face the wilderness Verse: 2 Men in hats, boys on bikes Perfect girls, baby dykes Superstars, blighted ones I went out to face them one by one I went out to face them, one by one Goodbye Maryann As you turn to watch me Don't cry Maryann And don't try to stop me Verse: 3 Cause I'm gonna go where the lights are bright Where sacred secrets sail like kites We've been sleeping girl all our lives And we never lived no we just survived And we never lived. We just survived Verse: 4 I'll take my heart, I'll take my key I'll find out who, who could care for me Are there pots of gold, are there floods and fires Are there thieves and beggars, saints and liars Are there thieves and beggars, saints and liars? Goodbye Maryann As you turn to watch me Don't cry Maryann And don't try to stop me Verse: 5 I put on my finest summer dress So light and thin, torn at the chest I brushed my hair, I held my breath I went out to face the wilderness I went out to face the wilderness Instrumental: (chords as in verse) Outro: Maryann...
