Selection chords: Katie Paterson

Verse:
        F          A#  F
Painted white, new in town
            A#                 F
You werenʼt hiring, but I was looking
Gm  C     F        A#       C
 In those days, my working days
             A#                F     C
Came in from Jersey, not from Brooklyn.

Pre-chorus:
F
Oh, my love, was it all in vain?
          A#                     F               Gm  C
We always wanted money, now the moneyʼs not the same...
     F
In a quiet moment at the theater, I could hear the train
A#                          F          Gm
Deep inside the city, your memory remains.

Chorus:
C    F
Mary Boone, Mary Boone
           A#                 F  Gm
Iʼm on the dark side of your room...
C    F
Mary Boone, Mary Boone
        A#                                 F  Gm  C
Well, I hope you feel like loving someone soon...

F A# F Gm C x2

Verse:
        F
Crooked crime, petty cop
            A#                     F
Not on th? street yet, but it was cooking
Gm C     F         A#       C
In those days, the burning days
             A#                F     Gm  C
Th? one from Queens, not from Brooklyn...

Pre-chorus:
F
Oh, my love, was it all in vain?
   A#                            F               Gm  C
We always wanted money, now the moneyʼs not the same...
     F                          A# F
In a quiet moment at the theater, I could hear the train
A#                          F          Gm
Deep inside the city, your memory remains.

Chorus:
C    F
Mary Boone, Mary Boone
           A#                 F  Gm
Iʼm on the dark side of your room...
C    F           A#
Mary Boone, Mary Boone
        F                               Gm  C
Well, I hope you feel like loving someone soon.

Bridge:
F              A#
 Book of hours, Russian icons
   F               Gm   C
And sand mandalas and Natarajas
    F              A#
And hex-sign barns, Ando churches
   F                Gm          C
And whirling dervishes and long exposures
   A#                    F
And these two tunnels Go west and east
Gm                  C
 Let me bring you my masterpiece
A#                    F
 Youʼre the author of everything
Gm                 C
 Use this voice and let it sing

Chorus:
C    F
Mary Boone, Mary Boone
           A#                 F  Gm
Iʼm on the dark side of your room...
C    F           A#
Mary Boone, Mary Boone
        F                               Gm  C
Well, I hope you feel like loving someone soon.
