When I first saw you I saw something
         F                   C
I hadn't seen in a long long time

I saw a lady who looked like a woman
                    G7              C
Who could drive me  right out of my mind

      F             C  
But I also saw your diamond
    F                   C
And your golden wedding band
 
I know you're married but I've gotta ask you
                     G7   C
How married are you  Mary Ann


Are you so married that you can't see me
        F                  C
Looking at you with hungry eyes

Are you so married that you'd deny me
                   G7  C
Just one night in  paradise

        F                C
I wanna hold you I wanna kiss you
        F              C
I wanna love you all I can

I know you're married but I've gotta ask you
                     G7   C
How married are you  Mary Ann

                     F    C
How married are you  Mary Ann
                      F    C    
How much of a chance  do I stand
     F               C
On a scale of one to ten
                     G7   C
How married are you  Mary Ann


Surely surely you can see me
          F                     C           
Trembling trembling to hold you tight

I'm not talking about forever 
                  G7      C
I'm just talking  about tonight

        F                 C     
I wanna touch you I wanna watch you
          F                   C
Slip that diamond off of your hand

I know you're married but I've gotta ask you
                     G7   C
How married are you  Mary Ann

                    F    C
How married are you Mary Ann
                     F    C    
How much of a chance do I stand
     F               C
On a scale of one to ten
                     G7   C
How married are you  Mary Ann

                     G7   C
How married are you  Mary Ann
