Song: Mary Jane's Last Dance 
By:    Tom Petty

[intro:] 2 X [Am  G  D  Am ]  {guitar only}
         2 X [Am  G  D  Am ]  {whole band}

[verse:1]
Am                    G
She grew up in an Indiana town
       D                                Am 
Had a good lookin' mama, who was never around
     Am                       G
But she grew up tall, and she grew up right 
          D                   Am
With them Indiana boys on an Indiana night

2 X Am G D Am {harmonica + woohoos}

[verse:2]
    Am                      G
She moved down here at the age of 18
     D                                           Am
She blew the boys away, it was more than they'd seen
  Am                                  G              
I was introduced and we both started groovin'
                D                               Am
She said I dig you baby, but I gotta keep movin'          on,      keep movin' on

2 X [ Am  G  D  Am ]

[chorus:] 
Em7/9                                                  A
Last dance with Mary Jane - One more time to feel the pain
Em7/9                                                  A           G
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again

2 X [ Am  G  D  Am ]  {harmonica + woohoos}

[verse:3]
Am                                 G
Well I don't know,  but I've been told
          D                          Am
You never slow down,  you never grow old
    Am                       G
I'm tired of screwing up,  tired of going down
  D                              Am
Tired of myself,  tired of this town
   Am       G              D                        Am
Oh my my,  oh hell yes,    honey put on that party dress
 Am                  G
Buy me a drink,     sing me a song
 D                                      Am
Take me as I come,  cause I can't stay long

[chorus:] Em7/9 A  Em7/9  A  G

[solo: guitar]  4 X [ Am  G  D  Am ]

[verse:4]
AM                       G
There's pigeons down on Market Square
       D            vv     Am
She'standing  in her under-wear
 Am                       G
Looking down from a hotel room
       D                     Am
The nightfall will be coming soon
  Am           G              D                       Am
Oh my my,  oh hell yes,  you gotta put on that party dress
  Am                                  G
It was to cold to cry when I woke up alone
   D                                    Am
I hit the last number, I walked to the road
