    F/C               C7                    F/C             C7
She climbs a tree and scrapes her knee, her dress has got a tear

    F/C            C7              F/C             C7
She waltzes on her way to mass and whistles on the stair

    Dm                             Bbm7           
And underneath her wimple, she has curlers in her hair

  F/C            Dm             Gm7 C 
I even heard her singing in the ab--bey
[Verse 2]
      F/C             C7              F/C          C7
She's always late for chapel, but her penitence is real

      F/C             C7            F/C            C7
She's always late for everything, except for every meal

  Dm                            Bbm7
I hate to have to say it, but I very firmly feel 

  F/C          Dm           Gm7 C
Maria's not an asset to the ab--bey
[Pre-Chorus 1]
    Dm                          C7
I'd like to say a word in her behalf

  Dm  Gm7      C7
Maria makes me laugh
[Chorus 1]
F/C                F            C7
How do you solve a problem like Maria?

F/C                F                C7
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?

F                   Am/C            Bb
How do you find the word that means Maria?

  G                  Bbm7                C7
A flibbertijibbet, a will-o'-the wisp, a clown

F/C              F                  C7
Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her

F/C              F             Gm
Many a thing she ought to understand

    Fm/C                         C7
But how do you make her stay and listen to all you say?

Fm                              C7
How do you keep a wave upon the sand?

    F/C                F            Gm
Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria?

F                 Csus4     C7      F
How do you hold a moonbeam, in your hand?
[Bridge 1] (N.C.= no chords) N.C. When I'm with her I'm confused, out of focus and bemused N.C. And I never know exactly where I am N.C. Unpredictable as weather, she's as flighty as a feather N.C. She's a darling, she's a demon, she's a lamb [Bridge 2]
          Bbsus      Bb            Bbsus           Bb
She'd out pester any pest, drive a hornet from its nest

          Bbsus            Bb             Bbsus     Bb
She could throw a whirling dervish out of whirl

       Fsus           F             Fsus            F
She is gentle, she is wild, she's a riddle, she's a child

        Gm7                Gm7            C7
She's a headache, she's an angel, she's a girl
[Chorus 2]
F/C                F            C7
How do you solve a problem like Maria?
