Merry Go Round chords by Kacey Musgraves (Ver. 2)

• Capo on 1st

Difficulty: Novice


F
If you ain't got two kids by 21,
                     Bb
You're probably gonna die alone.
                    F
Least that's what tradition told you.

And it don't matter if you don't believe,
                          Bb               F
Come Sunday morning, you best be there in the front row like you're supposed to.


Bbm           F
Same hurt in every heart.
Bbm              C
Same trailer, different park.

Bb
Mama's hooked on Mary Kay.

Brother's hooked on Mary Jane.
F
Daddy's hooked on Mary two doors down.
Bb
Mary, Mary quite contrary.

We get bored, so, we get married
F             C         Bb
Just like dust, we settle in this town.
                   F                 C
On this broken merry go 'round and 'round and 'round we go
F             C     Bb
Where it stops nobody knows and it ain't slowin' down.
            F
This merry go 'round.


F
We think the first time's good enough.
                       Bb
So, we hold on to high school love.
                        F
Sayin' we won't end up like our parents.

Tiny little boxes in a row.
                          Bb
Ain't what you want, it's what you know.
                        F
Just happy in the shoes you're wearin'.


Bbm                 F
Same checks we're always cashin'
Bbm              C
to buy a little more distraction.


Bb
Mama's hooked on Mary Kay.

Brother's hooked on Mary Jane.
F
Daddy's hooked on Mary two doors down.
Bb
Mary, Mary quite contrary.

We get bored, so, we get married
F             C         Bb
Just like dust, we settle in this town.
                   F                 C
On this broken merry go 'round and 'round and 'round we go
F             C     Bb
Where it stops nobody knows and it ain't slowin' down.
            F
This merry go 'round.



Bb
Mary, Mary quite contrary.

We're so bored until we're buried
F             C         Bb
Just like dust, we settle in this town.
                   F
On this broken merry go 'round


F
Jack and Jill went up the hill.

Jack burned out on booze and pills.

And Mary had a little lamb.
                        F
Mary just don't give a damn no more.



Thanks, y'all!
