I've tried my best to transcribe this from a video of them playing live.
I'm not completely sure about the picking, but the into seems to be close
to this, based around the G chord:
e|-----------------|
B|------3----------|
G|-----------------|
D|------0------0---|
A|---------2-------|
E|--3--------------|
Standard Tuning, No Capo.
G: 320033
C: X32010
Em: 022000
D: XX0232
C/B: x32000
G C D
C G
Marianne stood by the window, looking out on the street as the cars sail by
G C D
Knew you, wondered if he was going to magically reappear,
C D
step out of his car,
C D G
run into to your arms Marianne
C Em D C
Could wait for a sign but you're just killing time
C C/B Em
and it's killing you too
C Em
What you can't put behind,
D C Em
it'll stay in your mind and it'll haunt you
D* C* G*
Down, down, down
G
He was, he was your only son
C D C D G
Like you were your mother's only daughter.
C G
But you have to believe when they say
C D C D
he didn't leave because of you or me
C D C D G
but because he saw no other way Marianne.

C Em D C
Could wait for a sign but you're just killing time
C C/B Em
and it's killing you too
C Em
What you can't put behind,
D C Em
it'll stay in your mind and it'll haunt you
D* C* G*
Down, down, down
C C/B Em C
C/B Em
And I'm not looking for a reason, I'm looking for truth
D C Em
But if I find it meanwhile I could be of good use but there's no use
C Em D C
G
No use in, blaming yourself, it won't lead to anything, Marianne.
G* D* G*
But what good does this song
G* D* G*
But what good does convincing
C D C C/B Em
I'm not waiting for you to get over this
C D C D
This emptiness and fear won't cease to exist
C D C C/B Em
I just wish that you would come to see
C D C D
That everything is the way its must be
C D G*
And if I am wrong, Marianne, you may call me a liar.
* = strum once
There's probably a few C/B's I've missed out, Klara does them really quickly just as
she's about to change from a C chord
so just stick them in where it feels right.
I'm not sure about the 'But you have to believe when they say' line because the
timing/phrasing changes completely
but I've tried my best.
