Chords

As recorded by Joan Baez (From the 1973 Album WHERE ARE YOU NOW, MY SON?) [Intro] A [Chorus]
A
Mary Call, Mary Call

A
You never stumble, you never fall

A
Silver stars and lilies call

A
For the yearning of the young one

A
Named Mary Call

A
She's the treasure of the mountains

A
And the dearest one of all
[Verse 1]
A
Papa's gone and mama too

A
This life has been quite cruel to you

A
But spirit took you from the start

A
It made you brave and it gave you heart

A
Brothers and sisters by your side

A
You worked so hard that the earth took pride

A
It gave you sage, wild thyme and rue

A
To earn your keep, to pull you through
[Chorus]
A
Mary Call, Mary Call

A
You stand so straight and you stand so tall

A
Winds will sweep and rivers fall

A
For the yearning of the young one

A
Named Mary Call

A
She's the treasure of the mountains

A
And the dearest one of all
[Interlude] A [Verse 2]
A
When you finally met despair

A
A kindly man came to your care

A
He held you in his arms and said

A
Just dry your eyes and rest your head
[Out-Chorus]
A
Mary Call, Mary Call

A
You never stumble, you never fall

A
Silver stars and lilies call

A
For the yearning of the young one

A
Named Mary Call

A
She's the treasure of the mountains

A
And the dearest one of all

A
Mary Call, Mary Call

A
You stand so straight and you stand so tall

A
Winds will sweep and rivers fall

A
For the yearning of the young one

A
Named Mary Call

A
She's the treasure of the mountains

A
And the dearest one of all
