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