Capo 2
Verse
Fmaj7 E
In a sea of faces, in a sea of doubt
G E
In this cruel place your voice above the maelstrom
Fmaj7 E
In the wake of this ship of fools I'm falling further down
G E
If you can see me, Marian, reach out and take me home.....
[Refrão]Fmaj7 E
I hear you calling Marian
G E
Across the water, across the wave
Fmaj7 E
I hear you calling Marian
G E
Can you hear me calling you to
Save me, save me, save me from the
Fmaj7 E
Grave...
Fmaj7 E
Marian,
Marian,
verse 2
Fmaj7
There's a weight above me
E
And the pressure is all too strong
G
To breathe deep, breathe long and hard
E
To take the water down and go to sleep
Fmaj7 E
To sink still further beneath the fatal wave
G
Marian I think I'm drowning
E
This sea is killing me
[Refrão]Fmaj7 E
I hear you calling Marian
G E
Across the water, across the wave
Fmaj7 E
I hear you calling Marian
G E
Can you hear me calling you to
Save me, save me, save me from the
Fmaj7 E
Grave...
Marian, Marian.
