[Intro]
E Esus4 F#m11 A
[Verse 1]
E Even if I am in love with you Esus4 All this to say, what's it to you? F#m11 Observe the blood, the rose tattoo A Of the fingerprints on me from you E Other evidence has shown Esus4 That you and I are still alone F#m11 We skirt around the danger zone A And don't talk about it later
[Chorus]
Em7 Cadd9 Marlene watches from the wall Bm7 Her mocking smile says it all Cadd9 She records the rise and fall Em7 Of every soldier passing Cadd9 But the only soldier now is me Bm7 I'm fighting things I cannot see Cadd9 I think it's called my destiny D That I am changing Cadd9 Bm7 Cadd9 Marlene on the wall
[Verse 2]
E Well, I walk to your house in the afternoon Esus4 By the butcher's shop with the sawdust strewn F#m11 "Don't give away the goods too soon" A Is what she might have told me E And I tried so hard to resist Esus4 When you held me in your handsome fist F#m11 And reminded me of the night we kissed A And of why I should be leaving
[Chorus]
Em7 Cadd9 Marlene watches from the wall Bm7 Her mocking smile says it all Cadd9 As she records the rise and fall Em7 Of every soldier passing Cadd9 But the only soldier now is me Bm7 I'm fighting things I cannot see Cadd9 I think it's called my destiny D That I am changing Cadd9 Bm7 Cadd9 Marlene on the wall
[Instrumental]
E Esus4 F#m11 A x2
[Chorus]
Em7 Cadd9 Marlene watches from the wall Bm7 Her mocking smile says it all Cadd9 As she records the rise and fall Em7 Of every soldier passing Cadd9 But the only soldier now is me Bm7 I'm fighting things I cannot see Cadd9 I think it's called my destiny D That I am changing Cadd9 Bm7 Cadd9 Marlene on the wall
[Verse 3]
E And even if I am in love with you Esus4 All this to say, what's it to you? F#m11 Observe the blood, the rose tattoo A Of the fingerprints on me from you E Other evidence has shown that Esus4 You and I are still alone F#m11 We skirt around the danger zone A And don't talk about it later E And I tried so hard to resist Esus4 When you held me in your handsome fist F#m11 And reminded me of the night we kissed A And of why I should be leaving
[Chorus]
Em7 Cadd9 Marlene watches from the wall Bm7 Her mocking smile says it all Cadd9 As she records the rise and fall Em7 Of every man who's been here Cadd9 But the only one here now is me Bm7 I'm fighting things I cannot see Cadd9 I think it's called my destiny D Cadd9 That I am changing, changing, changing, changing, changing
[Chorus]
Em7 Cadd9 Marlene watches from the wall Bm7 Her mocking smile says it all Cadd9 As she records the rise and fall Em7 Of every soldier passing Cadd9 But the only soldier now is me Bm7 I'm fighting things I cannot see Cadd9 I think it's called my destiny D That I am changing Cadd9 Marlene on the wall
