Verse:
Bm Em
I fell into the ocean
A7 D
And you became my wife
G7 F#7
I risked it all against the sea
Bm
To have a better life
Em A7
Marie you are the wild blue sky
D
Men do foolish things
G7 F#7
You turn kings into beggars
Bm
And beggars into kings
Chorus:
G D
Pretend that you owe me nothing
A7 D
And all the world is green
G D
We can bring back the old days again
A7 D D/a A#m
When all the world is green
Solo:
NOTE: The song changes key to C minor for the solo. The D/a and A#m that lead
you back into the verse from the chorus are replaced with G7 to lead you into
C minor. The solo sequence is played exactly the same as the verse except that
everything is moved up 1 fret. Stay in C minor for the final verse. Last updated:
