Chords

[Verse 1]
        C
Painted white, new in town

            F                 G
You weren't hiring, but I was looking

         C
In those days, my working days

             F                G
Came in from Jersey, not from Brooklyn
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Oh, my love, was it all in vain?

   F                            G
We always wanted money, now the money's not the same

     C
In a quiet moment at the theater, I could hear the train

F                          G
Deep inside the city, your memory remains
[Chorus]
C
Mary Boone, Mary Boone

           F                 G
I'm on the dark side of your room

C
Mary Boone, Mary Boone

        F                                 G
Well, I hope you feel like loving someone soon
[Instrumental interlude] C F G C F G [Verse 2]
C
Crooked crime, petty cop

           F                      G
Not on thе street yet, but it was cooking

C
In those days, the burning days

             F                G
Thе one from Queens, not from Brooklyn
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Oh, my love, was it all in vain?

F                               G
We always wanted money, now the money's not the same

     C
In a quiet moment at the theater, I could feel your pain

F                          G
Deep inside the city, your memory remains
[Chorus]
C
Mary Boone, Mary Boone

           F                 G
I'm on the dark side of your room

C
Mary Boone, Mary Boone

        F                                 G
Well, I hope you feel like loving someone soon
[Instrumental interlude] C F G C F G [Bridge]
C              F
Book of hours, Russian icons

    C                 Dm  G
And sand mandalas and Natarajas

C                   F
And hex-sign barns, Ando churches

    C                   Dm     G
And whirling dervishes, long exposures

    F                    Em
And these two tunnels go west and east

Dm                   G
Let me bring you my masterpiece

           F         Em
You're the author of everything

         Dm        G
Use this voice and let it sing
[Chorus]
C
Mary Boone, Mary Boone

           F                 G
I'm on the dark side of your room

C
Mary Boone, Mary Boone

        F                                 G
Well, I hope you feel like loving someone soon
[Outro] C F G
