1.

[E]Even if I am in love with you all

[Esus4]this to say what's it to you? Ob-

[F#msus4]serve the blood the rose tatoo of the

[Aadd2]fingerprints on me from you.

[E]other evidence has shown that

[Esus4]you and I are still alone we

[F#msus4]skirt around the danger zone and don't

[Aadd2]talk about it later.



CHORUS

[Em7]Marlene watches from the walls

[Cmaj7]her mocking [C6]smile says it all

[Bm7sus4]as she records[Bm7] the rise and

[Cmaj7]fall of every soldier passing

[Em7]but the only soldier now is me

[Cmaj7]I'm fighting things[C6] I cannot

[Bm7sus4]see. I think its [Bm7]called my desti-

[G/C]ny but [D/C]I [G/C]am [Cmaj9]changing

[D] Marlene on the wall

[Cmaj7] | [D] | [Cmaj7]   (Well I)



2.

[E]Walk to your house in the afternoon by the

[Esus4]butcher shop with the saw-dust strewn

[F#msus4]"don't give away the goods too soon" is

[Aadd2]what you might have told me and I

[E]tried so hard to resist when you

[Esus4]held me in your handsome fist and re

[F#msus4]minded me of the night we kissed and of

[Aadd2]why I should be leaving
