#1.
E                                           B
Marianne, Oh, Marianne, Oh, won't you marry me?
                                           E
We can have a bamboo hut and brandy in the tea.

Leave your fat old Mamma home,
                   A
She never will say yes.
               E         B       E
If Mamma don't know now, she can guess..my, my, yes.

CHORUS:
E                   B
All day, all night, Marianne.
                    E
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
                          B
Even little children love Marianne.
                    E
Down by the seaside sifting sand.

#2.
E
When she walks along the shore, people 
         B
pause to greet.

While birds fly around her, little fish come
       E
to her feet.
E                                             A
In her heart is love, but I'm the only mortal man,
A                E       B     E
who's allowed to kiss my Mari..anne..

Don't rush me.

CHORUS:
E                   B
All day, all night, Marianne.
                    E
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
                          B
Even little children love Marianne.
                    E
Down by the seaside sifting sand.

E                                            B
When we marry, we will have a time you never saw.
                                             E
I will be so happy, I will kiss my mother-in-law.
                                             A
Children by the dozen, in and out the bamboo hut,
              E          B       E
one for every palm tree, and coconut..hurry up now.

CHORUS:
E                   B
All day, all night, Marianne.
                    E
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
                          B
Even little children love Marianne.
                    E
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
