[F] [C] [Gm] [Dm] [C] [F] [C]
[Dm] [C/G]
[Bb] [A] [Dm] [Dm/C] [G] [Bb/D] [Bb] [F]
[F] So much depe[C]nds
On first loves and fr[Gm]iends
Legs for a [Dm]tab[C]le
[F]I, I painted my r[C]oom
With judgments and d[Gm]oom
But I still ain't[Dm] ab[C/G]le
To s[Bb]leep, got to sl[A]eep
And d[Dm]ream up some d[Dm/C]reams I can k[G]eep
Oh[Bb/D] my, [Bb]my marigold, marig[F]old
[F]I was walking at d[C]awn
When something turned [Gm]on
But I couldn't n[Dm]ame [C]it
So [F]I, I went back h[C]ome
I did it al[Gm]one
But I couldn't c[Dm]laim[C/G] it
I t[Bb]ried, yes I tr[A]ied
I t[Dm]ried honey[Dm/C] I was den[G]ied
Oh[Bb/D] my, [Bb]my marigold, marig[F]old
Well [Dm]everything becomes much more meaningless
As time passes [F]by
So I [Dm]hide in the bedroom with strong curtains drawn
So I c[Bb]an't look the world in the e[C]ye
[F]I heard you were w[C]ell
I heard that you f[Gm]ell
Back on your f[Dm]eet[C]
Well [F]me, I'm still in f[C]ear
I planted her [Gm]here
Right in the st[Dm]reet[C/G]
To s[Bb]leep, so she sl[A]eeps
And d[Dm]reams with the[Dm/C] orphans and fr[G]eaks
Oh[Bb/D] my, [Bb]my marigold, marig[F]old
Now t[F]alk, talk it is ch[C]eap
I talk in my s[Gm]leep
I know what to [Dm]say[C]
I s[F]aid, I said you were w[C]ise
To let go of my e[Gm]yes
And push me a[Dm]way[C/G]
And [Bb]run, yes you r[A]un
You [Dm]run honey[Dm/C] nothing gets d[G]one
Oh[Bb/D] my, [Bb]my marigold, marig[F]old
But [Dm]all that I've learned it must be a chemical ch[F]ange
After [Dm]all I'm no different from the next twisted talker
Who's [Bb]taking his lies to the gr[C]ave
[F]I wasn't mys[C]elf
I was nobody e[Gm]lse
That I couldn't [Dm]be[C]
Like y[F]ou were nobody t[C]oo
To somebody [Gm]who's exactly like [F]me[C/G]
So s[Bb]leep, let her sl[A]eep
And d[Dm]ream up the d[Dm/C]reams we can k[G]eep
Oh[Bb/D] my, [Bb]my marigold, marigo[F]ld
