Tom: 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 some kind of gypsy boy
F#m E Esus4 E E7
before I let you take me home
[Chorus]
A F#m
Now so long, Marianne, It's time that we began
E Esus4 E E7 E Esus4 E E7 A Asus4
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[Verse 2]
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 Esus4 E E7
and then the angels forget to pray for us
[Chorus]
A F#m
Now so long, Marianne, It's time that we began
E Esus4 E E7 E Esus4 E E7 A Asus4
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[Verse 3]
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 Esus4 E E7
as we went kneeling through the dark
[Chorus]
A F#m
Oh so long, Marianne, It's time that we began
E Esus4 E E7 E Esus4 E E7 A Asus4
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[Verse 4]
A Bm
Your letters they all say 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 Esus4 E E7
is fastening my ankle to a stone
[Chorus]
A F#m
Now so long, Marianne, It's time that we began
E Esus4 E E7 E Esus4 E E7 A Asus4
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[Verse 5]
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 Esus4 E E7
I never said that I was brave
[Chorus]
A F#m
Oh so long, Marianne, It's time that we began
E Esus4 E E7 E Esus4 E E7 A Asus4
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[Verse 6]
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 Esus4 E E7
to wash my eye__lids in the rain
[Chorus]
A F#m
Oh so long, Marianne, It's time that we began
E Esus4 E E7 E Esus4 E E7 A Asus4
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[Verse](I found this extra verse written out somewhere.
Not on the original recording from the Best Of... Disc)
A Bm
Oh, your eyes, well, I forget your eyes
D A
your body's at home in every sea
G D
How come you gave away your news to everyone
F#m E Esus4 E E7
When you said it was a secret just for me
