Fisher-Z (John Watts) - Marliese


This is one of my favourite songs. Enjoy!


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.
