Marillion - Quartz Less Is More

marillion – quartz ( less is more version )

intro : Em

Em F#m
i can imagine nothing more tedious
Em F#m
than trying to have fun with you again
Em F#m
maybe it’s just something in my mind
Em F#m
but i hate feeling like i’m trying all the time
Em
it’s a kind of lie
F#m Em F#m Em F#m Em F#m
when we pretend that we’re still friends

Em F#m
and every time i smile d’you wonder if i’m laughin’ at you?
Em F#m
and with every little grin you don’t want to be wonderin’
Em F#m Em F#m
just exactly what it is i’m taking pleasure in

guitar melody : Em

Em
although i always said
F#m Em
we were basically the same and all one
F#m
all one
Em F#m
it’s so easy to persuade myself
Em F#m
that i’m clockwork and you’re quartz
Em F#m
i’m clockwork and you’re quartz

guitar melody : Em

Gm Fm
you’re only happy when you’re oiled and jewelled
D#m Dm
you’re only happy when you wind me up
Gm Fm
and i know you’re so reliable it isn’t true
D#m Dm
and it’s so easy for me to break down
Gm Fm
if i could jump a ride between the skin and silicon then
D#m Dm
we could join hands and understand . hallelujah!
Gm
but i listen
Fm
to the ticking
D#m Dm
i guess we’re worlds apart . . .

for this part , just follow the Gm/Fm/D#m/Dm progression until the end , end on Em

it’s so hard
so hard
so hard
