Mary Boone
Vampire Weekend
[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
[Bridge]
C F
Book of hours, Russian icons
C G
And sand mandalas and Natarajas
C F
And hex-sign barns, Ando churches
C G
And whirling dervishes, long exposures
Am Em
And these two tunnels go west and east
F G
Let me bring you my masterpiece
Am Em
You're the author of everything
F 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]
