Intro
G# – C# – G# - C#
G# C# G# C#
I told them I take photos for this magazine.
G# C# G# G#
They let me in to see you comb your hair.
C# D# G#
I watched for signs as I came through that door.
C# D# G#
The anxious eyes that I’ve been waiting for.
C# D#
It's no use hoping I’m a dream.
Chorus:
G#
Oh Marliese
C# D# G# C# D#
The waiting almost brought me to my knees.
G#
Oh Marliese
C# D# G# C# D#
You didn’t really think I’d leave you in peace.
Intro again
G# C# G# C#
It's no use crying out ‘cos they can’t help you now.
G# C# G# G#
You're forced to hear the words I have to say
C# D# G#
I saw your face when I was taken down
C# D# G#
You seemed so pleased, you’re not so happy now
C# D#
It's your turn to be afraid
(chorus x 2)
G# C# G# C#
So where’s the smooth composure of the movie star
G# C# G# G#
You must have played this many times before
C# D# G#
Do I see tears? Well surely that’s not true
C# D# G#
Don’t kid yourself, it’s not worth hurting you.
C# D#
But remember when you try to sleep.
(chorus)
