Mary of Argyle
G C G D7 G
[Verse 1]
I have heGard the MaCvis singing, his lD7ove song to the mGorn',
I have sGeen the dewCdrop clinging to the rGose just nD7ewly bGorn
But a swEmeeter song has cheB7ered me at the evening's gentle clEmose,
and I've sA7een an eye still briDghter than Athe dewA7drop on the rDose.D7  
TD7was thy voGice, my gentle MCary, and thine arAmtless wiDnning smGile
that has mGade this world an EC.....den, Bonnie MGary D7of ArGgyle.
G  D7  G
[Verse 2]
Though thy voGice may lose its sweCetness,and thine D7eye its brightness tGoo,
though thy sGtep may lack its fleeCtness, and thy hGair it's sD7unny hGue
Still to Emme wilt thou be deB7arer than all the world shall Emown
I have loA7ved thee for thy beDauty, but nAot for tA7hat alDoneD7  
I have watGched thy heart, dear MCary, and thy gooDdness was the wGile,
that has mGade thee mine fCore....ver Bonnie MGary D7of ArGgyle.
