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