Mary Janes Last Dance

New song off the Greatest Hits LP.

MARY JANE'S LAST DANCE (INDIANA GIRL)

Tom Petty

Intro/Verses: Am-G-D

Chorus: G-A-G-A-G

Use G Harp

She grew up in an Indiana town

Had a good lookin' Mama who was never around

But she grew up tall and she grew up right

With them Indiana boys on an Indiana night

She came down here at the age of 18

She blew the boys away - It was more than they'd seen

We were introduced and we both started groovin'

She said I dig you baby - But I gotta keep movin' - on - she's movin' on

Last dance with Mary Jane - One more time to feel the pain

I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again

Well I don't know - but I've been told

You never slow down - you never grow old

I'm tired of screwing up - 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 and play me a song

Take me as I came - cause I can't stay long

There's pigeons down on Market Square

She's standing there in her underwear

Looking out of a hotel room

The nightfall will be coming soon

Oh my my - Oh hell yes - You gotta put on that party dress

It was cold when I woke up alone

I played my last nickel and walked to the road

Mary Jane's Last Dance

======================

By: Tom Petty

Intro: Am (hammer on index finger) G D Am

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

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 groovin'

She said, "I dig you baby but I got to keep movin'"

...on, keep movin' on

Last dance with Mary Jane

One more time to kill the pain

I feel summer creepin' in and I'm

Tired of this town again

Well I don't know but I've been told

You never slow down, you never grow old

I'm tired of screwing up, I'm tired of bein' down

I'm tire of myself, I'm 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

Repeat chorus:

There's pidgeons down in Market Square

She's standin' in her underwear

Lookin' down from a hotel room

Nightfall will be comin' 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 walked to the road

Repeat chorus and fade:
