Number One chords by Marillion

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     Gm    Cm
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
