[Verse 1]
A                                  Bm
Come over to the window, my little darling
D                            A
I'd like to try to read your palm.
G                                  D
I used to think I was some kind of Gypsy boy
F#m                      E
Before I let you take me home.

[Chorus]
    A                  F#m
Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began
   E                                             A*
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.

[Verse 2]
         A                   Bm
Well you know that I love to live with you
D                              A
But you make me forget so very much.
G                        D
I forget to pray for the angels
        F#m                       E
And the angels forget to pray for us.

[Chorus]
    A                  F#m
Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began
   E                                             A*

[Verse 3]
   A                Bm
We met when we were almost young
D                       A
Deep in the green lilac park.
G                              D
You held on to me like I was a crucifix
           F#m                  E
As we went kneeling through the dark.

[Chorus]
A                  F#m
So long, Marianne, it's time that we began
   E                                             A*
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.

[Verse 4]
     A                                  Bm
Your letters they all say that you're beside me now.
D                   A
Then why do I feel alone?
G                                     D
I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web
   F#m                     E
Is fastening my ankle to a stone.

[Chorus]
A                  F#m
So long, Marianne, it's time that we began
   E                                             A*
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.

[Verse 5]
A                   Bm
For now I need your hidden love.
D                       A
I'm cold as a new razor blade.
G                              D
You left when I told you I was curious
        F#m             E
I never said that I was brave.

[Chorus]
A                  F#m
So long, Marianne, it's time that we began
   E                                             A*
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.

[Verse 6]
A                         Bm
Oh, you are really such a pretty one.
D                                  A
I see you've gone and changed your name again.
G                                  D
And just when I climbed this whole mountainside
   F#m                    E
To wash my eyelids in the rain!

[Chorus]
A                  F#m
So long, Marianne, it's time that we began
   E                                             A*
