Old Mr Linden passed on his warmest regards from the window seat Since his good wife took leave of this life he ain't half the man he use to be And the smiles on the outside, couldn't be further from the truth if he tried And the stars up the skies may as well burn out if you ain't by my side
BmOh Marianne, Marianne wAmait for me BmOne day I will be your king and yCou will be my Dqueen
Instrumental - G - Em - C - Am Remember Joe, well they let him go down at the saw mill on the edge of town They say that pride can cost a man his life, well Joes taken to drinking now And the smiles on the outside, couldn't be further from the truth if they tried It's a fight just to survive, working two jobs to keep the meter alive. Oh Marianne, Marianne wait for me One day I will be your king and you will be my queen The orange groves that line these roads ain't gonna offer me no sympathy The kids have grown and they miss you so, while you've been out there making history And the smiles on the outside, couldn't be further from the truth if we tried It's a fight just to survive, working two jobs to keep the meter alive. Oh Marianne, Marianne wait for me One day I will be your king and you will be my queen
