The Byrds     Sweet Mary               written by  McGuinn/Levy

Dm              C         Dm
Sweet Mary I've got to be leaving
                   C        G
Oh I can't let you into my life
        Dm            C      Dm                            C
Cause I know it would end in grieving and the last thing I need is a
G    A7
wife
       Dm
When I met I met you for pleasure
                      C            G
And the good times of running around
         Dm            C         Dm
Then you seemed to be so understanding
                             C          G         A7
>From the weight that's  been draggin me down
    Dm             C              Dm
The good times are coming between us
                         C              G
Though you  helped me I'm carrying   my load
         Dm         C           Dm                            C
And I've never felt more like a lover  but I'm running  right off the
G  A7
road
      Dm        C         Dm
Sweet Mary I've got to be leaving
                   C        G
Oh I can't let you into my life
        Dm            C      Dm                            C
Cause I know it would end in grieving and the last thing I need is a
G   A7
wife
        Dm          C         Dm
Oh it's nothing you said  or invited
                      C            G
And it's nothing  you did that was wrong
     Dm     C         Dm                    C            G         A7
Our love together was heaven but I promised myself to be strong
      Dm        C         Dm
Sweet Mary I've got to be leaving
                   C        G
Oh I can't let you into my life
        Dm            C      Dm                            C
Cause I know it would end in grieving and the last thing I need is a
G   A7     Dm
wife
