[Intro]
  C             A7
I never will forget the night
     D7          G
That I took Mary home


[Verse 1]
D
   I was driving down a lonely road
C                   G
   On a dark and stormy night
  D
When a little girl by the roadside
C                  D
   Showed up in my headlights
  G
I stopped the car, she got in the back
                D
And in a shaky tone
    C                 A7
She said, "My name is Mary
       D7                G
Please won't you take me home?"


[Verse 2]
D
   Now, she must have been so frightened
  C                     G
All alone there in the night
      D
And there was something so strange about her
C                     D
   Her face was deathly white
     G
She sat so pale and so very quiet
               D
In the backseat all alone
  C             A7
I never will forget the night
     D7          G
That I took Mary home


[Verse 3]
D
   I pulled into the driveway
C                            G
   Where she had told me to go
       D
I got out to help her from the car
       C             D
And as I opened up the door
        G
Well, I just could not believe my eyes
                  D
The backseat, it was bare
  C           A7
I looked all around the car
    D7          G
But Mary wasn't there


[Verse 4]
D
But a small light shone from the porch
       C                          G
And as someone opened up the door
               D
I asked the lady about the little girl
               C        D
That I had been looking for
    G
She gently smiled and with her hand
                     D
She brushed a tear away
    C                  A7
She said, "It sure was nice of you
   D7             G
To go out of your way"


[Verse 5]
 D
"But just 13 years ago today
C                   G
   In a wreck just down the road
    D
Our darling Mary lost her life
C               D
   And we sure miss her so
    G
But thank you for all your trouble
                          D
And for the kindness that you have shown
           C              A7
You're the 13th one who's been here
D7            G
Bringing Mary home"


[Outro]
  C             A7
I never will forget the night
     D7          G
That I took Mary home
