Easy Version
| Intro: |
| A |
| A Bm |
| Come over to the window, my little darling |
| D A |
| I'd like to try to read your palm |
| G D |
| I used to think I was somekind of Gypsy boy |
| F#m E E4 E E7 |
| Before I let you take me home |
| Chorus: |
| A F#m |
| Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began |
| E E4 E E7 |
| To laugh and cry and |
| E E4 E E7 A A4 A A4 A |
| cry and laugh about it all again |
| A Bm |
| Well you know that I love to live with you |
| D A |
| But you make me forget so very much |
| G D |
| I forget to pray for the angels |
| F#m |
| And then the angels forget |
| E E4 E E7 |
| to pray for us |
| Repeat Chorus |
| A Bm |
| We met when we were almost young |
| D A |
| Deep in the green lilac park |
| G D |
| You held on to me like I was a crucifix |
| F#m E E4 E E7 |
| As we went kneeling through the dark |
| Repeat Chorus |
| A |
| Your letters they all say |
| Bm |
| that you're beside me now |
| D A |
| Then why do I feel alone? |
| G D |
| I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web |
| F#m E E4 E E7 |
| Is fastening my ankle to a stone |
| Repeat Chorus |
| A Bm |
| For now I need your hidden love |
| D A |
| I'm cold as a new razor blade |
| G D |
| You left when I told you I was curious |
| F#m E E4 E E7 |
| I never said that I was brave |
| Repeat Chorus |
| A Bm |
| Oh, you are really such a pretty one |
| D A |
| I see you've gone and changed your name again |
| G D |
| And just when I climbed this whole mountainside |
| F#m E E4 E E7 |
| To wash my eyelids in the rain |
| Bridge: |
| D G A A x2 |
| Repeat Chorus |
| Ending: |
| A A D G x2 |
