Mary Jane's Last Dance

Tom Petty


Am  G  D  Am   4X

She grew up in an Indiana town
Had a good lookin' mama who never was around
But she grew up tall and she grew up right
With them Indiana boys on an Indiana night

A  G  D  Am
Well she moved down here at the age of 18
She blew the boys away, it was more than they'd seen
I was introduced and we both started grooving
She said I dig you baby but I've got to keep on movin' - on

Chorus
 Em                                                   A
Last dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the pain
 Em                                                    A     G
I feel summer creeping in and I'm tired of this town again

A  G  D  Am
Well I don't know but I've been told
You never slow down, you never grow old
You're tired of screwing up, you're tired of going down
Tired of myself, tired of this town
Oh my my, oh hell yes
Honey put on that party dress
Buy me a drink, sing me a song
Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long

chorus

solo

There's pigeons now on Market Square
She's standing in her underware
Lookin' down from a hotel room
And nightfall will be coming soon
Oh my my, oh hell yes
You've got to put on that party dress
It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone
I hit the last number, I walk to the road

chorus
