Marianne Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Mar[A]ianne, oh,[C] Mar[A]ian[D]ne,
oh, won't you [A]marry me?
We can [D]have [A]a b[D]amboo hut
and brandy in the [G]tea
Leave your [D]fat [A]old[D] mam[F#m]ma hom[D]e,
she never will [A]say yes
If [D]mama don't know now,
[A]she can [D]guess
[A]My, my, yes

[Verse 2]
All day, [D]all night,
[G]Marianne[D][G]
Down [D]by[F#m][D][F#m][D]
[A]the sea side siftin' sand
[D]Even little children love Marianne
[G]Down [A]by the seaside siftin' [D]sand

[Verse 3]
[D]When she [A]walks along the shore,
people pause [D]to greet
White birds [G]fly around
her; little fish come to her [D]feet
In [A]her [D]heart is [A]love but I'm
[D]the [F#m]only m[D]ortal man
[A]Who's [D]allowed to kiss
[G]my Marianne[D]

[Verse 4]
Don't rush me
[A]All day, all night, Marianne
Down by [F#m]the se[D]a side si[G]ftin' sa[D]nd
[A]Even little children [D]love
[F#m]Marian[D]ne
[A]Down by the seaside siftin' sand

[Verse 5]
When [F#m]we mar[D]ry we will have
a time you never saw
I will [A]be so happy I will kiss
[D]my mother inlaw
Children by the dozen in
and out the bamboo hut
One for every palm tree [A]and coconut
Hurry up now

[Verse 6]
All day, [A]all night, Marianne
Down by the sea [D]side siftin' sand
[A]Even [D]little children [D]love Marianne
[A]Down by the seaside siftin' sand
