"Chelsea Monday"
by Marillion
[Dm] [Am] [Bb] [Gm]
[Dm] Catalogue princess, ap[Am]prentice seductress
[Bb] hiding in her [Gm] cellophane world in glitter town.
[Dm] Awaiting the prince in het [Am] white Capri
[Bb] dynamic young tarzan [Gm] courts the bedsit queen.
[Dm] She's playing the actress in this [Am] bedroom scene,
[Bb] she's learning her lines from glossy [Gm] magazines.
[Dm] Stringing all her pearls from her [Am] childhood dreams,
[Bb] auditioning for the leading role on the [Gm] silver screen.
[Dm] Patience my tinsel [Am] angel.
[Bb] Patience my perfumed [Gm] child.
One [Dm] day they'll really [Am] love you.
You will [Bb] charm them with that [Gm] smile.
But for [Dm] now [Am] [Bb] [Gm]
It's just another Chelsea [Dm] Monday [Am] [Bb] [Gm]
Chelsea [Em] Monday! [D] [C] [Am].
(solo part:) [Em] [D] [C] [Am] (lots of times)
[Dm] [Am] [Bb] [Gm]
[Dm] Drifting with her [Am] incense in the
[Bb] labyrinth of [Gm] London.
[Dm] Playing games with [Am] faces in the
[Bb] neon wonderland [Gm].
Per[Dm]form to scattered [Am] shadows on the
[Bb] shattered cobbled [Gm] aisles.
Would she [Dm] dare recite so[Am]liloquies at the
[Bb] risk of stark ap[Gm]plause?
[Em] [D] [C] [Am]
To Chelsea [Em] Monday. [D] [C] [Am]
She'll [Em] pray for endless [D] Sundays,
as she [C] enters saffron [Am] sunsets.
[Em] Conjure phantom [D] lovers from the
[C] tattered shreds of [Am] dawn.
Ful[Em]filled and yet for[D]gotten
the [C] St Tropez mi[Am]rage.
[Em] Fragrant aphro[D]disiac,
the [C] withered tube[Am]rose.
[F#m] [A] [F#m] [C#m] [E] [C#m] [B] [Ebdim] [B] [G] [Em] (2x)
[F#m] Patience my tin[A]sel [F#m] angel.
[C#m] Patience my per[E]fumed [C#m] child.
One [B] day they'll real[Ebdim]ly [B] love you.
You will [G] charm them with that [Em] smile.
But for [F#m] now [A] [F#m] [C#m] [E] [C#m]
It's just another [B] Chelsea Monday [Ebdim] [B] [G] [Em] Sweet Chelsea
[F#m] Monday! [A] [F#m] [Bsus4] [B] [Dm] [F] [Dm] [Em] [G]

[F#m] [A] [F#m] [C#m] [E] [C#m] [B] [Ebdim] [B] [G] [Em] (3x)
[F#m] Catalogue princ[A]ess, ap[F#m]prentice seductress
[C#m] buried in [E] her [C#m] cellophane world in
[B] glitter town. [Ebdim] [B] [G] [Em]
[F#m] [A] [F#m] [C#m] [E] [C#m] [B] [Ebdim] [B] [G] [Em] (2x)

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official MARILLION tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
