Marillion - Quartz (Less Is More version)
Intro:
I can imagine nothing more tedious
Than trying to have fun with you again
Maybe it s just something in my mind
But I hate feeling like I m trying all the time
It s a kind of lie
When we pretend that we re still friends
And every time I smile d you wonder if I m laughin at you?
And with every little grin you don t want to be wonderin
Just exactly what it is I m taking pleasure in
Guitar melody: Em
Although I always said
We were basically the same and all one
All one
It s so easy to persuade myself
That I m clockwork and you re quartz
I m clockwork and you re quartz
Guitar melody: Em
You re only happy when you re oiled and jewelled
You re only happy when you wind me up
And I know You re so reliable it isn t true
And it s so easy for me to break down
If I could jump a ride between the skin and silicon then
We could join hands and understand. Hallelujah!
But I listen
to the ticking
I guess we re worlds apart ...
For this part, just follow the Gm/Fm/Ebm/Dm progression until the end, end on Em
It s so hard
So hard
So hard
