[Verse 1]
E
Even if I am in love with you,
E4
All this to say, what's it to you?
F#m11
Ob - serve the blood, the rose tattoo,
Asus2
Of the fingerprints on me from you,
E E4
Other evidence has shown that ...you and I are still alone,
F#m11
We ...skirt around the danger zone,
Asus2
And don't talk about it later!
[Chorus]
Em7 Cmaj7
Marlene watches from the wall,
Bm11
Her mocking smile says it all,
Cmaj7
As she records the rise and fall of every soldier passing,
Em7 Cmaj7
But the only soldier now is me,
Bm11
I'm fighting things I cannot see,
Cmaj7
I think it's called my desti - ny that I am changing,
D6sus2 Cmaj7 D6sus2 Cmaj7
Marlene on the wall!
[Verse 2]
E
Well, I walk to your house in the afternoon,
E4
By the butcher's shop, with the sawdust strewn,
F#m11
'Don't give away the goods too soon!'
Asus2
Is what she might have told me,
E
And I tried so hard to resist,
E4
When you held me in your handsome fist,
F#m11
And re - minded me of the night we kissed,
Asus2
And of why I should be leaving!
[Chorus]
Em7 Cmaj7
Marlene watches from the wall,
Bm11
Her mocking smile says it all,
Cmaj7
As she records the rise and fall of every soldier passing,

I'm fighting things I cannot see,

I think it's called my desti - ny that I am changing,
