Marlene On The Wall
Suzanne Vega
Gb Gbsus4 Abm11 H
Even if I am in love with you
GbAll this to say, what's it to you?
Observe Gbsus4the blood, the rose tattoo
Abm11Of the fingerprints on me from you
Other Hsus2evidence has shown
GbThat you and I are still alone
We Gbsus4skirt around the danger zone
Abm11And don't talk about it later
Marlene Hsus2watches from the wall
Gbm7Her mocking smile says it Dadd9all
She records the rise and Dbm7fall
Of every soldier Dadd9passing
But the only soldier now Gbm7is me
I'm fighting things I cannot Dadd9see
I think it's called my Dbm7destiny
That I am Dadd9changing
Marlene on E6sus2the wall
Dbm7 Dadd9
Well, I walk to your house in the Dadd9afternoon
By the Gbbutcher's shop with the sawdust strewn
"Don't give Gbsus4away the goods too soon"
Abm11Is what she might have told me
And Hsus2I tried so hard to resist
When you Gbheld me in your handsome fist
And reminded Gbsus4me of the night we kissed
And Abm11of why I should be leaving
Marlene Hsus2watches from the wall
Gbm7Her mocking smile says it Dadd9all
As she records the rise and Dbm7fall
Of every soldier Dadd9passing
But the only soldier now Gbm7is me
I'm fighting things I cannot Dadd9see
I think it's called my Dbm7destiny
That I am Dadd9changing
