 Met Mary Joanna just the other day
     D          D/A              C         G 
 And she was so neat she took my blues away
      D            D/A          C               G 
 From early in the morning till last in the night
 D           D/A      C          G 
 Mary Joanna makes me feel alright

 It's hot when there's nothing to say

 And everybody gets in your way

 Now when you're high when you open your mind
 But since I used this-the sorrow goodbye
 And when you're high when you have your way
 And everyone's gotta have their say

 And everybody gets in your way
 Set my mind on fire
 yea yea yea
