I told them I take photos for this magazine.
B E B B
They let me in to see you comb your hair.
E F# B
I watched for signs as I came through that door.
E F# B
The anxious eyes that I’ve been waiting for.
E F#
It's no use hoping I’m a dream.
Chorus:
B
Oh Marliese
E F# B E F#
The waiting almost brought me to my knees.
B
Oh Marliese
E F# B E F#
You didn’t really think I’d leave you in peace.

It's no use crying out ‘cos they can’t help you now.
B E B B
You're forced to hear the words I have to say
E F# B
I saw your face when I was taken down
E F# B
You seemed so pleased, you’re not so happy now
E F#
It's your turn to be afraid
(chorus x 2)

So where’s the smooth composure of the movie star
B E B B
You must have played this many times before
E F# B
Do I see tears? Well surely that’s not true
E F# B
Don’t kid yourself, it’s not worth hurting you.
E F#
But remember when you try to sleep.
