I've tried my best to transcribe this from a video of them playing live.
I'm not completely sure about the picking, but the into seems to be close
to this, based around the G chord:
e|-----------------|
B|------3----------|
G|-----------------|
D|------0------0---|
A|---------2-------|
E|--3--------------|
Standard Tuning, No Capo.
F: 320033
F: X32010
Am: 022000
G: XX0232
F/E: x32000
F F G
MFarianne stFood by the window, looking out on the street as the cars sail by
FKnew you, wondered if he was going to Fmagically Greappear,
Fstep out of Ghis car,
Frun into toG your armsF Marianne
FCould wait for a Amsign but you're Gjust killing Ftime
Fand it's killing F/Eyou Amtoo
FWhat you can't put Ambehind,
it'll Gstay in your Fmind and it'll haunt Amyou
G* F* F*
Down, down, down
FHe was, he was your only son
FLike you Gwere your Fmother's Gonly Fdaughter.
But you have to believe Fwhen they Fsay
he didn't Fleave beGcause of Fyou or Gme
but beFcause he Gsaw no oFther Gway FMarianne.
FCould wait for a Amsign but you're jGust killing Ftime
Fand it's killinF/Eg you Amtoo
FWhat you can't put Ambehind,
it'll Gstay in your Fmind and it'll haunt Amyou
G* F* F*
Down, down, down

And I'm not looking for a reason, I'm looking for truth
But if I Gfind it meanwhile I could be of good Fuse but there's no Amuse
F Am G F
No Fuse in, blaming yourself, it won't lead to anything, Marianne.
F* G* F*
But what good does this song
F* G* F*
But what good does convincing
F G F F/E Am
I'm not waiting for you to get over this
This Femptiness and Gfear won't Fcease to Gexist
F G F F/E Am
I just wish that you would come to see
That Feverything Gis the Fway its must Gbe
F G F*
And if I am wrong, Marianne, you may call me a liar.
* = strum once
There's probably a few C/B's I've missed out, Klara does them really quickly just as
she's about to change from a C chord
so just stick them in where it feels right.
I'm not sure about the 'But you have to believe when they say' line because the
timing/phrasing changes completely
but I've tried my best.
