Marlene Dietrichs Favorite Poem

• Am

Am, Fmaj7, Am, Fmaj7 

   Am 
My mother loved it so she said 

Sad eyed pearl and drop lips 
Fmaj7 
Glancing pierce through writer man 

Spoke hushed and frailing hips 
    Am 
Her old eyes skim in creasing lids 

A tear falls as she describes 
  Fmaj7 
Approaching death with a yearning heart 

With pride and no despise 
C                Cmaj7 
Hot tears flow as she recounts 
    Fmaj7 
Her favorite worded token 
  Am 
Forgive me please for hurting so 

Don't go away heartbroken no 

C                Cmaj7 
Hot tears flow as she recounts 
    Fmaj7 
Her favorite worded token 
   G 
Forgive me please for hurting so 
      Fmaj7 
Don't go away heartbroken no 

Am, Fmaj7, Am, Fmaj7 

     Am 
Just wise owl tones no velvet lies 

Crush her velvet call 
   Fmaj7 
Oh Marlene suffer all the fools 

Who write you on the wall 
    Am 
And hold your tongue about your life 

Or dead hands will change the plot 
     Fmaj7 
Will make your loving sound like snakes 

Like you were never hot 
C                Cmaj7 
Hot tears flow as she recounts 
    Fmaj7 
Her favorite worded token 
  Am 
Forgive me please for hurting so 

Don't go away heartbroken no 

C                Cmaj7 
Hot tears flow as she recounts 
    Fmaj7 
Her favorite worded token 
   G 
Forgive me please for hurting so 
      Fmaj7 
Don't go away heartbroken no 


(Break) Am, Fmaj7, Am, Fmaj7 

  Am

A tear falls as she describes
