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)
Hello Mary Lou,
Good-bye heart,
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you,
I knew Mary Lou,
We'd never part,
So hello Mary Lou,
Good-bye heart!
She passed me by one sunny day,
Flashed those big brown eyes my way,
And oooh, I wanted you forever more,
I'm not one who gets around,
Swear my feet stuck to the ground,
And though I never did meet you before,
Hello Mary Lou,
Good-bye heart,
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you,
I knew Mary Lou,
We'd never part,
So hello Mary Lou,
Good-bye heart!
I saw your lips I heard your voice
Believe me I just had no choice
Wild horses couldn't make me stay away
I thought about a moonlit night
Arms around you good and tight
That's all I had to see for me to say:
"Hey, hey, hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you!
I knew Mary Lou, we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart!
Yes, hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart!
Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart!"
