Mary Danced With Soldiers Acordes

	   
G                     C                    G 
She'd slip away each day with the dimming light 
G                                  C                   G 
And with the sweetest smile she'd kiss the child goodnight 
         C                                         G 
At the mill she'd work her fingers till they were raw 
Em                              D                G 
For the sake of her son and the daddy he never saw 


C                   G 
Mary danced with soldiers 
                         Em 
She stepped a light quadrille 
C                   G 
Shawl across her shoulders 
                 Em C                     G 
To keep away the chill, to keep away the chill 


G                        C                   G 
It was a rebel boy who brought her joy they say 
G                                    C                    G 
Though the years had passed the memories stood fast each day 
           C                                  G 
Before a bullet crushed the life of their romance 
Em                       D                G 
He gave her a shawl and a parasol from France 

 
C                   G 
Mary danced with soldiers 
                         Em 
She stepped a light quadrille 
C                   G 
Shawl across her shoulders 
                 Em C                     G 
To keep away the chill, to keep away the chill 

 
G                        C                   G 
They came around to the tavern in town that night 
G                       C                    G 
And with silent cries Mary never tried to fight 
      C                               G 
They cut her hair and left her body torn 
Em                  D                G 
Her spirit slipped away before the dawn 

 
C                   G 
Mary danced with soldiers 
                     Em 
But now her body's still 
C                   G 
Shawl across her shoulders 
    C              G 
To keep away the chill 

C                   G 
Mary danced with soldiers 
                         Em 
She stepped a light quadrille 
C                   G 
Shawl across her shoulders 
                 Em C                     G 
To keep away the chill, to keep away the chill
