G
[Verse 1]
G Am
Come over to the window my little darling
C G
I'd like to try to read your palm
F C
I used to think I was some kind of gypsy boy
Em D
Before I let you take me home
[Chorus]
G
So long, Marianne
Em D G
It's time that we began to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[Verse 2]
G Am
You know that I love to live with you
C G
But you make me forget so very much
F C
I forget to pray for the angels
Em D
And then the angels forget to pray for us
[Chorus]
G
So long, Marianne
Em D G
It's time that we began to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[Verse 3]
G Am
We met when we were almost young
C G
Down by the green Lilac Park
F C
You held on to me like I was a crucifix
Em D
As we went kneeling through the dark
[Chorus]
G
So long, Marianne
Em D G
It's time that we began to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[Verse 4]
G Am
For now I need your hidden love
C G
I'm cold as a new razor blade
F C
You left when I told you I was curious
Em D
I never said that I was brave
[Chorus]
G
So long, Marianne
Em D C G
It's time that we began to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[Verse 6]
G Am
Oh, you are really such a pretty one
C G
I see you've gone and changed your name again
F C
And just when I climbed this whole mountainside
Em D
To wash my eyelids in the rain
[Chorus]
G
So long, Marianne
Em D G
It's time that we began to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
