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