MARILLION – Number One
bonus track from the Anoraknophobia (2001) record
Pretty little tune, just three chords over and over...
Intro: 
D, Cm, Gm, D
Verse 1:
          Cm         Gm
You sound truly heartbroken 
        D               Cm
You can do it, you're a pro 
Gm         D          Cm          Gm
Agony from every pore and such control 
    D         Cm             Gm           D
The orchestra swoops and the drum samples roll 
    Cm            Gm              D                  Cm
You hold the high scream into the key change for the outro 
      Gm            D      Cm     Gm
It's another number one 
            D                   Cm     Gm      D
And that's exactly where you're comin' from 
            Cm        Gm    D     Cm
But can you play me a song  
                   Gm      D       Cm     Gm
For the deliberate loser 
Verse 2:
         D          Cm            Gm         D
Like an Olympic ice skater you've put in the hours 
Cm             Gm            D            Cm
Learned the routines and the high scoring loops 
    Gm     D                 Cm            Gm
And even before you sing the sweet opening line 
    D                Cm         Gm      D
You know that you're scorin' at least 5.9 
Cm            Gm
Here come the flowers 
           D             Cm
I saw them gathered all around you 
Gm                    D
Hangin' on your every word 
         Cm                         Gm
You were telling them you're master plan
D         Cm        Gm
World Domination 
D           Cm      Gm      D     Cm
Any way you can 
Chorus:
Gm             D              Cm               Gm
Don't you ever wonder if this will to win is a weakness?
D              Cm             Gm               D
Don't you ever wonder if this will to win is a weakness?
Cm             Gm             D                Cm
Don't you ever wonder if this will to win is a weakness? 
Gm             D         Cm      Gm
Don't you ever wonder... 
Outro: 
D, Cm, Gm, D
Gm
