[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 E7
Before I let you take me home
 
 
[Chorus]
      A            F#m
Now so long, Marianne
                             E
It's time that we began to laugh
E   E7  E   E7                     A   Asus
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 E7
And then the angels forget to pray for us
 
 
[Chorus]
    A              F#m
Now so long, Marianne
                             E
It's time that we began to laugh
E   E7  E   E7               A   Asus
And cry and cry and laugh about it all again
 
 
[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   E7
As we went kneeling through the dark
 
 
[Chorus]
    A              F#m
Oh, so long, Marianne
                              E
It's time that we began to laugh
E   E7  E   E7               A       Asus
And cry and cry and laugh about it all again
 
 
[Verse 4]
 A            
Your letters, 
                          Bm
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    E7
Is fastening my ankle to a stone
 
 
[Chorus]
     A           F#m
Now so long, Marianne
                             E
It's time that we began to laugh
E   E7  E   E7               A     Asus
And cry and cry and laugh about it all again
 
 
[Verse 5]
  A                  Bm
For now I need your hidden love I
 D                    A
'm cold as a new razorblade
 G                             D
You left when I told you I was curious
F#m                     E     E E7
I never said that I was brave
 
 
[Chorus]
    A             F#m
Oh, so long, Marianne
                              E
It's time that we began to laugh
E   E7  E   E7               A     Asus
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     E E7
To wash my eyelids in the rain
 
 
[Chorus]
    A           F#m
Oh, so long, Marianne
                             E
It's time that we began to laugh
E   E7  E   E7                A        Asus
And cry and cry and laugh about it all again
