AmShow me your stripes said the Czebra to
AmThe wicked spider in the Cmorning dew
AmI will provide for you Cshelter and wine
AmIf you can prove that you are Cof my kind
[Chorus 1]
AmO ho CMaria!
I'd Fbreak my wooden Ebones for Amyou
AmYou took my Ccrystal Fheart
And shook it Ethrough and through
AmO ho CMaria!
You Fbroke my brittle Ebones in Amtwo
AmYou shook your Csilver Fhair
And sent me Eto the Ammoon
[Bridge 1]
AmAnd then the spider turned Conto its back
AmDisplayed the colors in Cthree neat tracks
And said, Dmwhen we go
We Cgo Amalone
[Verse 2]
AmAnd so they crossed Cthe windy field
AmThe spider provided by the Czebra's heels
AmAnd every bird from Cabove did cry
AmYou will be bitten boy and you'll Csurely die
[Instrumental 1]
Am  C  F  G  Am
AmOo-oCh,   AmOoC-oh
[Chorus 1]
AmO ho CMaria!
I'd Fbreak my wooden Ebones for Amyou
AmYou took my Ccrystal Fheart
And shook it Ethrough and through
AmO ho CMaria!
You Fbroke my brittle Ebones in Amtwo
AmYou shook your Csilver Fhair
And sent me Eto the Ammoon

[Bridge 2]
AmWe may be different
AmTwo sides of the same fence
CYou bring your elegance
FAnd me my dumb strength
AmYou were so kind to me
AmBeneath the willow trees
CYou took my hand in yours
FAnd I got down on my knees
AmThey said I couldn't see it clear
AmThey said that it would disappear
CBut when they came and sang their sermon
FIt fell upon deaf ears
AmBecause I see but I cannot hear
AmAnd I feel but I cannot fear
CAnd I knew you to be true
When I Fsaw you first come near
[Chorus 2]
AmO ho CMaria!
I'd Fbreak my wooden Ebones for Amyou
AmYou took my Ccrystal Fheart
And shook it Ethrough and through
AmO ho CMaria!
I'd Fdo it all agEain for yAmou
AmYou shook your Csilver Fhair
And sent me Eto the Ammoon
[Outro]
AmO ho CMaria!
I'd Fdo it all agEain for yAmou
AmO ho CMaria!
I'd Fdo it all agEain for yAmou
AmO ho CMaria!
I'd Fdo it all agEain for yAmou
AmO ho CMaria!
I'd Fdo it all agEain for yAmouAm
