She grew up in a Mission town
         D                     G               Em      A
With the hills of sage and the billboard Jesus looking down
G            A
She couldn't wait to leave
G       A
She did not believe
    Bm         A       D               G
The songs they sang outside the liquor stores
Em         A             D
In Daddy's Family Gospel Band

G    Em    A    D    G    Em    A

D             G            Em           A
Mama read her bible almost every single day
    D            G                    Em               A
And Mary and her sisters were brought up the Christian way
G               A
In summers they travelled and preached
G                      A
While her friends were at the beach
Bm           A        D            G
Although she felt the power in the words
    Em                  A
She longed to make them hers

    D   G        D                  G
And Mary heard a blue note late one night
    D   G         D                   G
And Mary felt the darkness flood with light
    D    G    D    G

D                G      Em              A
She left home at 18 put away her fiddle case
            D               G
And tried a life without commandments
Em              A
Setting her own pace
G           A             G                A
Now hanging from her neck is the cross her grandma left
Bm      A              D            G
Now she pays the bills playing in a bluegrass band
   Em                A
It took her years to understand
Em      A             D    G    D    G
