[D] [G]
If [D]you ain't got two kids by 21,
you're probably gonna die alone
[G] at least that's what tradition told you.
And [D]it don't matter if you don't believe,
come Sunday morning you best [G]be there
in the front row, like your s'posed to.
[Em7]Same hurt in every [D]heart.
[G]Same trailer, different [A]park.
[G]Mama's hooked on Mary Kay
Brother's hooked on Mary Jane
And [D]Daddy's hooked on Mary two doors down.
[G]Mary Mary quite contrary,
we get bored so we get married
and [D]just like dust we [A]settle in this [Bm]town.
On this [G]broken merry go [D]'round and round and [A]round we go, [Bm]where it stops
[A]nobody knows[G]
and it ain't slowin' down, this merry go [D]round
[D]We think the first time's good enough,
So we hold on to highschool [G]love,
Say we won't end up like our parents.
[D]Tiny little boxes in a row,
ain't what you want, it's what you [G]know,
Just happy in the shoes your wearin'.
[Em7]Same checks we're always[D] cashin',
[G]to buy a little more [A]distraction.
[G]Mama's hooked on Mary Kay
Brother's hooked on Mary Jane
And [D]Daddy's hooked on Mary two doors down.
[G]Mary Mary quite contrary,
we get bored so we get married
and [D]just like dust we [A]settle in this [Bm]town.
On this [G]broken merry go [D]'round and round and [A]round we go, [Bm]where it stops
[A]nobody knows[G]
and it ain't slowin' down, this merry go [D]round
[G]Mary Mary quite contrary,
we're so bored until we're buried
and [D]just like dust we [A]settle in this [Bm]town.
On this [G]broken merry go [D]'round
Merry go [Bm]'round
[D]Jack and Jill went up the hill,
Jack burned out on booze and pills,
and [G]Mary had a little lamb,
Mary just don't give a damn no [D]more
