i’ve tried my best to transcribe this from a video of them playing live .
i’m not completely sure about the picking , but the into seems to be close
to this , based around the G chord :
E | – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – |
B | – – – – – – 3 – – – – – – – – – – |
G | – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – |
D | – – – – – – 0 – – – – – – 0 – – – |
A | – – – – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – – |
E | – – 3 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – |
standard tuning , no capo .
G : 320033
C : x32010
Em : 022000
D : xx0232
C/B : x32000
G C D
C G
marianne stood by the window , looking out on the street as the cars sail by
G C D
knew you , wondered if he was going to magically reappear ,
C D
step out of his car ,
C D G
run into to your arms marianne
C Em D C
could wait for a sign but you’re just killing time
C C/B Em
and it’s killing you too
C Em
what you can’t put behind ,
D C Em
it’ll stay in your mind and it’ll haunt you
D * C * G *
down , down , down
G
he was , he was your only son
C D C D G
like you were your mother’s only daughter .
C G
but you have to believe when they say
C D C D
he didn’t leave because of you or me
C D C D G
but because he saw no other way marianne .
C Em D C
could wait for a sign but you’re just killing time
C C/B Em
and it’s killing you too
C Em
what you can’t put behind ,
D C Em
it’ll stay in your mind and it’ll haunt you
D * C * G *
down , down , down
C C/B Em C
C/B Em
and i’m not looking for a reason , i’m looking for truth
D C Em
but if i find it meanwhile i could be of good use but there’s no use
C Em D C
G
no use in , blaming yourself , it won’t lead to anything , marianne .
G * D * G *
but what good does this song
G * D * G *
but what good does convincing
C D C C/B Em
i’m not waiting for you to get over this
C D C D
this emptiness and fear won’t cease to exist
C D C C/B Em
i just wish that you would come to see
C D C D
that everything is the way its must be
C D G *
and if i Am wrong , marianne , you may call me a liar .
* = strum once
there’s probably a few C/B’s i’ve missed out , klara does them really quickly just as
she’s about to change from A C chord
so just stick them in where it feels right .
i’m not sure about the ’but you have to believe when they say’ line because the
timing/phrasing changes completely
but i’ve tried my best .
