Standard (EADGBE)

 They came in under the radar

 When our backs were turned around

 In a fleet of Lincoln Town Cars

 They rolled in to our town

 Confounded all six senses

 Like an opiate in the brain

Mary shut the garden door

-5

Looks a lot like rain

 Gm13/ Gm13 Gm13/ Gm13 / / -5

Mary shut the garden door

Mary shut the garden door

 We pounded Rachel’s’ radio

 For reports about the bridge

 There was nothing on but static

Nothing in the fridge

 We lay there listening to the wind

Whistling through the pines

 When we heard the engines idling

/ -5

Saw the headlights through the blinds

Mary shut the garden door

Mary shut the garden door

Rough dreams

 Those voices in the kitchen

I woke up

 And sensed the new condition

They won

Storms raged

Things changed

-5

Forever

  Mary. . . door

 So if you ever see an automaton

 In a mid price luxury car

  Better roll the sidewalks up

 Switch on your lucky star

 Cause this zombie does impressions

 But not really to amuse

 This ballad is for lovers

/ -5

With something left to lose

  Mary. . . door

  Mary. . . door

 |Gm13/ Gm13 Gm13/ Gm13 |/ |/ -5|
