[C] Take a message to Mary, [G] [C] but don't tell her where I am. [C] Take a message to Mary, [G] [C] but don't say I'm in a jam. [Am] [Em] You can tell her I had to see the world, [Am] [D] [G] [G7] or tell her that my ship set sail. [G7] [C] [Em] [F] [C] You can say she better not wait for me, [Am] [G] [Am] [C] [G7] but don't tell her I'm in jail. No, don't tell her I'm [C] in jail. #2.

[Am] [Em] You can tell her I had to change my plans, [Am] [D] [G] [G7] and cancel out the wedding day. [C] [Em] [F] [C] But please don't mention my lonely cell, [Am] [G] [Am] [C] [G7] [C] where I'm gonna pine away, un-til my dying day. #3. [C] [G] Take a message to Mary, but don't tell her all [C] you know. [C] [G7] [C] My hearts aching for Mary, Lord knows I miss her so. [Am] [Em] Just tell her I went to Timbuktu, [Am] [D] [G] [G7] Tell her I'm searchin' for gold. [C] [Em] [F] [C] You can say she'd better find someone new, [Am] [G] [Am] [C] [G7] [C] to cherish and to hold. Oh, Lord, this cell is cold. [C] [Am] [C] [G7] [C] OUTRO:Maaaa..ry, Maaa..ry. Oh, Lord this cell..is..cold. A fifties favourite from Kraziekhat.
