Come over to the window, my little darling

I used to think I was some sort of gypsy boy
F#5 E5 E5 E5 E5
before I let you take me home

Now so long, Marianne, It's time that we began

to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again

A5 B5
Well you know that I love to live with you
D5 A5
but you make me forget so very much

I forget to pray for the angels

and then the angels forget to pray for us
(Refr?o)
Verso 3:
A5 B5
We met when we were almost young
D5 A5
deep in the green lilac park

as we went kneeling through the dark
(Refr?o)
Verso 4:
A5 B5
Your letters they all say that you're beside me now

then why do I feel so alone

I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web
F#5 E5 E5 E5 E5
is fastening my ankle to a stone
(Refr?o)
Verso 5:
A5 B5
For now I need your hidden love

I never said that I was brave
(Refr?o)
Verso 6:
A5 B5
Oh, you are really such a pretty one
D5 A5
I see you've gone and changed your name again
G5 D5
And just when I climbed this whole mountainside
F#5 E5 E5 E5 E5
to wash my eyelids in the rain
(Refr?o)
