\begin{verse}
Come \[A]over to the window, my little \[Bm]darling
\[D] I'd like to try to read your pa\[A]lm
\[G] I used to think I was some kind of \[D]gypsy boy
\[F#m] Before I let you take me hom\[E]e \[Esus4 E E7]
\end{verse}
\begin{chorus}
(Now/Oh) \[A]{so long}, Marianne
\[F#m] It's time that we began to \[E]laugh
\[Esus4] And \[E]cry, \[E7] and \[E]cry
\[Esus4] And \[E]laugh a\[E7]bout it all \[A]again \[Asus4 A Asus4 A]
\end{chorus}
\begin{verse}
Well, you know that I love to live with you
But you make me forget so very much
I forget to pray for the angel
And then the angels forget to pray for us
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
We met when we were almost young
Deep in the green lilac park
You held on to me like I was a crucifix
As we went kneeling through the dark
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
Your letters they all say that you're beside me now
Then why do I feel alone?
I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web
Is fastening my ankle to a stone
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
For now I need your hidden love
I'm cold as a new razor blade
You left when I told you I was curious
I never said that I was brave
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
Oh, you are really such a pretty one
I see you've gone and changed your name again
And just when I climbed this whole mountainside
To wash my eyelids in the rain
\end{verse}
