Hello Mary Lou

Hello Mary Lou

By Rick Nelson (aka Ricky Nelson)

As interpreted by Joe G

Play with a Capo on 2.

Despite its scary name, Amadd11 is actually a really easy chord (XX0210). It's just

Dm7 but leave the high E open.

Amadd11/F# is almost as easy, put your thumb on the F# (2X0210)

G

Hello Mary Lou,

C

Good-bye heart,

G D7/F# Amadd11/F#

Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you,

G

I knew Mary Lou,

Bm Em

We'd never part,

G D

So hello Mary Lou,

G

Good-bye heart!

G

She passed me by one sunny day,

C

Flashed those big brown eyes my way,

G D7 Amadd11

And oooh, I wanted you forever more,

G

I'm not one who gets around,

C

Swear my feet stuck to the ground,

G D G

And though I never did meet you before,

G

Hello Mary Lou,

C

Good-bye heart,

G D7/F# Amadd11/F#

Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you,

G

I knew Mary Lou,

Bm Em

We'd never part,

G D

So hello Mary Lou,

G

Good-bye heart!

G

I saw your lips I heard your voice

C

Believe me I just had no choice

G D7/F# Amadd11/F#

Wild horses couldn't make me stay away

G

I thought about a moonlit night

C

Arms around you good and tight

G D G

That's all I had to see for me to say:

G C

"Hey, hey, hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart

G D7/F# Amadd11/F#

Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you!

G Bm Em

I knew Mary Lou, we'd never part

G D G

So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart!

G D G

Yes, hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart!

G D G

Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart!"
