WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Jackson C Frank - Marlene Chords | Ver. 1
[Verse 1]
Em
The ghost of her hair,
Am Am/G
floats over there
D/F#
and her smile, her smile
Em
it seems so lonely
Em
She gave me her hand,
Am Am/G
as they struck up the band
D/F#
and she seemed to say,
she seemed to say
Em
"you're the only"
C/G D/F#
Then we danced like two snowflakes,
G G/F# Em
in the falling wind,
in the wind...
Em Am Am/G
Oh, do me a favour god...
D/F# Em
won't you let Marlene come in?
[Verse 2]
Em
The gymnasium floor,
Am Am/G
the brassbound door,
D/F#
the jungle bird, the jungle bird
Em
that she showed me
Em
Her love was so clean,
Am Am/G
to tell the truth Marlene,
D/F# Em
the sound of your tambourine still haunts me
C/G D/F#
We were so young then,
G G/F# Em
now that I'm old, I know, oh I know
Em Am Am/G
I loved her right then,
D/F# Em
but I made Marlene let go
[Verse 3]
Em
My friends in the bars,
Am Am/G
hell, they only see the scars
D/F#
and they do not give a damn, they do not give a damn,
Em
that I loved you
Em
I don't know why,
Am Am/G D/F#
but once you've seen the sky -
Em
you think, you know all birds are lovely
C/G D/F#
but there's snow on the ground,
G G/F# Em
in Woodstock tonight,
Am Am/G
it's been twentytwo years dear,
D/F# Em
since I saw the light
[Verse 4]
Em
The world did explode,
Am Am/G
in such a high powered load
D/F#
to run, to run to run,
Em
was all that left me
Em
Up heres theres breeze,
Am Am/G
high in the clouds we freeze...
D/F# Em
to fly, to fly away was the lesson
C/G D/F#
Though the fire burned her life out,
G G/F# Em
and left me little more
Am Am/G
I am a crippled singer,
D/F# Em
and it evens up the score.
[Verse 1]
Em
The ghost of her hair,
Am Am/G
floats over there
D/F#
and her smile, her smile
Em
it seems so lonely
Em
She gave me her hand,
Am Am/G
as they struck up the band
D/F#
and she seemed to say,
she seemed to say
Em
"you're the only"
C/G D/F#
Then we danced like two snowflakes,
G G/F# Em
in the falling wind,
in the wind...
Em Am Am/G
Oh, do me a favour god...
D/F# Em
won't you let Marlene come in?
Em Am Am/G
Oh, do me a favour god...
D/F# Em
won't you let Marlene come in?
