G
Suddenly Mary fell in the water
Were not I weary I would have caught her
I watched for a moment and scrambled in after
Words of disownment were drowned out with laughter

G                       C
I awoke from a peaceful sleep
             D                 C 
And found my clothes under the table
G             C
Aesop used to make me weep
D                   Am     C
But now I'm part of Mary's fable

G
Suddenly Mary fell in the water
I found myself married to somebody's daughter
F                          Em
"Loving," she told me, "Is a question of bravery"
A                                       C               G
But when she started to hold me, it was closer to slavery

G                      C 
I got up for a bite to eat
             D                  C
And found my clothes inside the icebox
G                  C 
I used to stand on my own to feet
D                     Am       C
But now I sit when my new wife talks

G
Suddenly Mary fell in the water
She floated away with the ring that I bought her
She had convinced me that I was a failure
I burned all my clothing and found a new tailor

F
Suddenly Mary
Em
Suddenly Mary
Am
Suddenly Mary
C
Suddenly Mary
G
Suddenly Mary's fine
Em
Suddenly Mary's fine
A
Suddenly Mary's fine
C
Suddenly Mary's fine
G
Suddenly Mary's fine
Em
Suddenly Mary's fine
A
Suddenly Mary's fine
C
Suddenly Mary's fine
G
Suddenly Mary's fine, fine
                Em
Suddenly Mary's fine, fine
                Am
Suddenly Mary's fine, fine
                C
Suddenly Mary's fine, fine
                G
Suddenly Mary's fine
