[Chorus]
C#
Her name was Mary Jane,
Fm
She sang, like Etta James,
F# C#
She came and went to easily.
C#
And it's strange, how times have changed,
Fm
I seen Mary yesterday,
F# C#
and she, don't look the same to me.
[Verse]
C#
Baby what's the word?
Fm
I aint trying to kill your mockingbird.
F#
I got scared and i started walking backwards.
And after i got home alone,
C#
I couldn't stop drunk dialing your cellular phone.
C#
And when you don't pick up, your hang up hurts.
Fm
I know i got caught with my hand up her skirt.
F#
I'm into sandals with the candle light romance,
(
C#)\
I go to itunes, to download your slow jams.
[Verse]
C#
Typhoon, with the Thunder clap.
Fm
I fell in love with the girl in my summer class.
F# \
She sat, right next to me,
(
C#)
And she made me tell the truth like ecstasy.
C# Fm
So, whoa, i gotta slow myself on down.
F# C#
I've been in love before.
[Chorus]
C#
Her name was Mary Jane,
Fm
She sang, like Etta James,
F# C#
She came and went to easily.
C#
And it's strange, how times have changed,
Fm
I seen Mary yesterday,
F# C#
and she, don't look the same to me.
[Verse]
C#
Baby we can be my mellow lil lady.
Fm
Marijuana sunshine soul made crazy.
F#
Why go back and forth like a maybe?
C#
You and i can flow and say i love sailing.
C#
Light brown elleby on Chip and dale.
Fm
Skin say i'm fat but i'm skinny as a rail.
F#
Pet snail, i got a freak on her knees.
C#
I need a little more made of the American Dream.
C#
I want her fired up, yea baby don't try to tie me up.
Fm
I'm just not the type of guy that'd wanna lie to ya.
F#
And if you wanna try to fall in love,
C#
It's going to take a little time,
C#
And i won't budge for a minute now.
Fm
You've got to slow yourself on down.
F# C#
I've been in love before.
[Chorus]

Well she arrived on an Astro plane.
Fm
6:45 on a Saturday.
F#
Just in time for the masquerade,
C#
Just in time for the masquerade.
C#

F#
Just in time to see:
C#
Me making love to her friend Marie.
C#
I said: Baby this aint what you think.

Like i'm supposed to say that 'cause i've seen it on t.v.
F#
Then she ran out into the street.
