Marrakesh Cifras

[Verse 1]
     D       Em      Bm               G            Bm
They found us in the courtyard at our table in the shade
   D           A        Em                   G
We toasted our last few moments and then the end came
     D       Em          Bm                G             Bm
They took us back to the airstrip, in that beaten up old car
       D                  A       Em           G
And we rattled across the African scrubland in silence
    E              G           E          G
Our hands locked together with cold steel cuffs
    E                   G
Sometimes I wish it was still that way

[Verse 2]
      D      Em       Bm                  G              Bm
Now a whole world has died since then, so many faithless days
      D      A       Em                 G
I was born alone and lucky and I'm just used to it that way
   D          Em        Bm      G                  Bm
My dice still roll in sixes and yours just turn up ones
        D       A        Em                G
And I have taken my good fortune and I've run, and I've run
      E                          G
But I always swore that I'd come back for you
      E                    G
Is it too late now to come back for you

[Verse 3]
      D           Em        Bm           G         Bm
Now beneath this lonely junction on the northbound M6
   D            A          Em           G
We spray our words of signature on a concrete bridge
        D        Em       Bm              G           Bm
And between the words of wisdom and the slogans of despair
D              A                 Em         G
Someone's just gone and written "I'm sorry" there
        E                         G
Well I always swore that I'd come back for you
      E                    G
Is it too late now to come back for you
           E               G
You're the only one I will ever love...
