I love this song... especially the live version. Though its nice to hear it at a pace where you can sorta actually sing along. Also is it just me or does this singer of this particular song (Sean, right?) look a lot like taylor hicks? with dark hair of course.
well im gonna marry mary for when mary's taking care of me we'll all be feeling merry when i marry mary mac. Genius play of words! Video is scary though.
Lol... 2 people got their heads stuck in the floor.

I did a search for tabs for the mandolin or tenor banjo but nuthin' out there. I guess I'm gonna have to work on it. Fun song!

I'm a huge fan of GBS but if you want a really psycho song try Rattlin Bog by the Irish Decendants. starts off slow but it gets crazy fast

Not that hard to follow, chorus is the hardest part and even that is rather easy:
Mari-Mac's mothers makin Mari-Mac marry me,
My mothers makin me merry Mari-Mac,
Well I'm gonna marry Mari for when Mari's takin care of me,
Well all be feelin merry when I marry Mari-Mac.
Super fun to sing along to =P

I'd say the fourth verse is the hardest part in the song

You should hear it live. It's got such a raucous energy to it, you can't help but be effected by it.
