[Intro]
C  G Gadd2  G


[Verse 1]
         Gm    C/Fm   C             G  Gadd2 G
He was a quiet boy in seventh grade,
          Gm         C/Fm          C             G  Gadd2 G
She had a little red streak in her twisted braids,
       Gm  C/Fm     C                        G  Gadd2 G
He was curious and asked: “what’s your name?”
    Gm         C/Fm      C           G  Gadd2 G
Her green eyes answered “Mary Jane”.


[Verse 2]
     Gm     C/Fm   C            G  Gadd2 G
They met up Friday after school,
   Gm      C/Fm   C                  G  Gadd2 G
He lit her up she made him feel cool,
         Gm       C/Fm      C            G  Gadd2 G
He could hurt all night and not feel pain,
     Gm             C/Fm       C         G  Gadd2 G
Just looking at the stars with Mary Jane.


[Chorus]
G
She got him to grow up fast,
G
That in a sense you don’t get back,
    C
The way you saw the world started to change,
   G
It felt so good when she was around,
G
But every up took him further down,
    C                              C   Csus2  C
And he ain’t never really been the same,
G
Since Mary Jane.


[Interlude]
Gm  C/Fm  C  G Gadd2 G


[Verse 3]
   Gm       C/Fm    C              G  Gadd2 G
He met her, he’d be friends one day,
        Gm      C/Fm    C           G  Gadd2 G
Wearing tie I’d sing in such a grey,
Gm        C/Fm       C         G  Gadd2 G
They took trips real far away,
          Gm C/Fm     C          G  Gadd2 G
And we’re wilder than Mary Jane.


[Verse 4]
            Gm          C/Fm        C              G  Gadd2 G
There was a girl on the road with a tempting face,
    Gm           C/Fm           C              G  Gadd2 G
She rode a white horse and they found a place,
          Gm    C/Fm    C         G  Gadd2 G
Where she put a craving in his veins,
    Gm            C/Fm   C          G  Gadd2 G
Now he don’t even talk to Mary Jane.


[Chorus]
G
She got him to grow up fast,
G
That in a sense you don’t get back,
    C
The way you saw the world started to change,
   G
It felt so good when she was around,
G
But every up took him further down,
    C                              C   Csus2  C
And he ain’t never really been the same,
G
Yeah, since Mary Jane he went,
     Gm
From High School to State Rehab,
C
Seventeen to thirty-five,
C                            Csus2  C
Life of the party to barely alive.


[Verse 5]
         Gm     C/Fm         C            G  Gadd2 G
Now he’s in the church of Redeeming Grace,
     Gm     C/Fm      C           G  Gadd2 G
Some people cry, some people pray,
         Gm     C/Fm       C            G  Gadd2 G
There’s folding chairs and coffee mates,
    Gm       C/Fm       C          G  Gadd2 G
And chips to kill their day-by-day.


[Outro]
Gm        C/Fm       C    C Csus2 C
That they quit their marriage,
      C*
Yeah, they all guit their Mary Jane,
Gm  C/Fm  C  G Gadd2 G
Gm  C/Fm  C  G Gadd2 G
         Gm    C/Fm   C             G  Gadd2 G
He was a quiet boy in seventh grade,
          Gm         C/Fm          C
She had a little red streak in her twisted braids,
G  Gm
