My maria
          E                 B         A A
don't you know, I've come a long long way

when shes around she takes my blues away

lonely highway in the skies

my maria
                   E     B        A  A
there were some blue and sorrowed times
 E        B         A    A
just my thoughts about you
            E  B        A  A
bring back my peace of mind
        E   B   A A
gypsy lady
         E       B          A  A
you're miracle worked for me
 E    B      A    A
you set my soul free
 E           B       A A
like a ship sailing on the sea
 
[Bridge]
B        A        A    A     E      B B  A    A  A
  she's sunlight when the   stars  are  grey
B  B    B      B  A        A  A   E    B B  A   A  A
   she treats me so right lady   take  me  away
 
E   B   A  A
