I told them I take photos for this magazine.
E A E E
They let me in to see you comb your hair.

I watched for signs as I came through that door.
A B E
The anxious eyes that I’ve been waiting for.
A B
It's no use hoping I’m a dream.
Chorus:
E
Oh Marliese
A B E A B
The waiting almost brought me to my knees.
E
Oh Marliese
A B E A B
You didn’t really think I’d leave you in peace.

It's no use crying out ‘cos they can’t help you now.
E A E E
You're forced to hear the words I have to say
A B E
I saw your face when I was taken down
A B E
You seemed so pleased, you’re not so happy now
A B
It's your turn to be afraid
(chorus x 2)
E A E A
So where’s the smooth composure of the movie star
E A E E
You must have played this many times before
A B E
Do I see tears? Well surely that’s not true
A B E
Don’t kid yourself, it’s not worth hurting you.
A B
But remember when you try to sleep.
