I am fairly sure I've got the chord shapes right or this one.....
however, the names are a different story altogether.
.....if someone could correct the mistakes I may have made
     in the names I'd appreciate it
Also, I'm leaving the right hand fingering for the player to
work out for him/herself....its fairly easy...basically arpeggio
style (with some strumming) and picked up easily by listening to the song
.....thanks to Howard Wright for the tuning

				MARCIE
			   by Joni Mitchell
			from Song to a Seagull
		   -----------------------------------
Tuning: (from low to high)  D G D G B D.......open G
there are two distinct chord progressions used in this song
which I call Patterns 1 & 2.
Pattern 1:
G Cadd2 G  G Cadd2 G
........repeat Pattern 1 for the following  :
Marcie's faucet needs a plumber
Marcie's sorrow needs a man
Red is autumn, green is summer
Greens are turning and the sand
All along the ocean beaches
stares up empty at the sky
Marcie buys a bag of peaches
stops a postman passing by
Pattern 2 :
and brown paper
.........use Pattern 1 for the following :
Marcie dresses warm, its snowing
takes a yellow cab uptown
red is stop and green's for going
Sees a show and rides back down
Down along the Hudson River
Past the shipyards in the cold
still no letter's been delivered
still the winter's days unfold
.......and Pattern 2 for this :
Like magazines fading in dusty grey attics
and servers make a dream
Dream back to summer
