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

[G]Suddenly Mary fell in the water
I found myself married 
to somebodys daughter
[F]Loving she told me 
Is [Em]a question of bravery
[A]But when she started to hold me 
it was [C]closer to slaver[G]y

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