[Verse 1]
D                          G/B
  Did you hear about Saint Stephen's end
G          G/F#              A*    D
  How they stoned him by the river bend?
A                D
  In the morning sun
F#                   G      A*
  When the world was young

D                        G/B
  Did you hear about the elephant?
G     G/F#          A*     D
  Ran wild from the circus tent
A                   D
  Killed a crowd of ten
F#            G        A*
  Before they shot him dead


[Chorus]
   D
Oh Mary, don't you cry
       G        A     D
Please lay your weary hand in mine


[Verse 2]
D                    G/B
  Did you hear about Edith Cavell
G     G/F#          A*       D
  How on the firing line she fell?
A              D
  In a Belgian night
F#     G        A*
  In a dress of white


[Chorus]
   D
Oh Mary, don't you cry
       G        A     D
Please lay your weary hand in mine
    G  A  D       Bm
And swing low and softly down
                 Asus4  A
And lend me your ear

[Verse 3]
D                          G/B
  Did you hear about Saint Peter's crown
G          G/F#          A*     D
  How they crucified him upside down?
A               D
  In the desert air
F#         G         A*
  When the world was fair


[Chorus]
   D
Oh Mary, don't you cry
       G        A     D
Please lay your weary hand in mine
    G  A  D       Bm
And swing low and softly down
                 Asus4  A       D
And lend me your ear,      Mary dear
