KEY:G
(Em)There's a neat little lass and her name is Mari Mac

Chorus:
Mari Mac's mother's making Mari Mac marry me
(D)My mother's making me marry Mari Mac
(Em)Well I'm gonna marry Mari cause Mari's takin' care o' me
We'll all be feeling(G)merry when I(A)marry Mari(Em)Mac


********(This song is in the key of Em relative to the Key of G. Here's the Nashville 
Numbering System to play in another key.)


(6m)Now Mari and her mother are an awful lot together
In(5)fact you hardly see the one without the other and
(6m)People often wonder if it's Mari or her mother or
(1)Both of them to(2)gether I am (6m)courting

Well up among the heather in the hills of Benafee
Well I had a bonnie lass sittin on my knee 
A bumble be stung me right above the knee
Up among the heather in the hills of Benafee

Well I said to bonnie lass how we gonna spend the day
She said sittin in the heather of the hills of Bneafee
Where all the boys and girls were making up a fray
Up among the heather in the hills of Benafee

Weddin's on a Wednesday, eveerythin's arranged
Soon you'll never change your mind unless you minus change
Of making the arrangements and feeling lots of rage
Marriage is an awful undertaking

Sure to be a grand for grand of that a fair
Gonna be a fork and plate for every man that's there And I'll be a bugger if I don't get my share
AlthoughI maybe very much mistaken
