[Verse]
F C
I was married in Mount Airy
Em G
In its prime, sometime in the late 60’s
F C
Where he carried me into a lover’s suite
Em
And we made love beneath
G
The mirrored ceilings
[Pre-chorus]
F G
And things were merry at Mount Airy
Where they’d sing,
Em G
“All you have to bring is your love of everything”
[Interlude]
F C Em G
[Chorus] (Double the tempo)
F C
Don’t recall what we were drinking but
Em G
I remember thinking
F C Em G
There was something very strange in the a - ir
F C
Don’t recall what we were singing but
Em G
I remember swinging
F C Em G
With my hands caught in the curls of his long ha - ir
[Interlude]
F C Em
G
Don’t recall what we were drinking…
[Verse]
F C
But I could swear he tasted of sherry
Em G
Contrary to the maraschino cherries
F
With our own colour TV
C
Heavenly shag carpeting
Em
A world apart from the ordinary,
G
Something in the air
[Pre-chorus]
F G
And things were merry at Mount Airy
Where they’d sing,
Em G
“All you have to bring is your love of everything”
