Sweet Mary I've got to be leaving

                   D        D
Oh I can't let you into my life

        Am            D      Am                            D
Cause I know it would end in grieving and the last thing I need is a

D    E7
wife

       Am
When I met I met you for pleasure

                      D            D
And the good times of running around

         Am            D         Am
Then you seemed to be so understanding

                             D          D         E7
>From the weight that's  been draggin me down

    Am             D              Am
The good times are coming between us

                         D              D
Though you  helped me I'm carrying   my load

         Am         D           Am                            D
And I've never felt more like a lover  but I'm running  right off the

      Am        D         Am
Sweet Mary I've got to be leaving

                   D        D
Oh I can't let you into my life

        Am            D      Am                            D

        Am          D         Am
Oh it's nothing you said  or invited

                      D            D
And it's nothing  you did that was wrong

     Am     D         Am                    D            D         E7
Our love together was heaven but I promised myself to be strong

      Am        D         Am
Sweet Mary I've got to be leaving

                   D        D
Oh I can't let you into my life
