Songs From A Room

Leonard Cohen, (born September 21, 1934 in Montréal, Quebec, Canada) is a poet, novelist and musician. His musical career has largely overshadowed his prior work as a poet and novelist, although he has continued to publish poetry sporadically after his breakthrough in the music industry.  Musically, Cohen's early songs are based in folk music, in terms of both melody and instrumentation; from the 1970s, though, his work begins to show the influence of various types of popular and cabaret music.

Bm         F#         Bm   F#m     C#m  F#m
It seems so long ago, Nancy was alone

A                           Bm                A       E               A
Looking at the Late Late show through a semi-precious stone 

C#                      F#m            D                 A
In the House of Honesty her father was on trial 

E                       F#m              C#m          D
In the House of Mystery there was no one at all 

A               E            F#m
there was no one at all

It seems so long ago, none of us were strong
Nancy wore green stockings and she slept with everyone
She never said she'd wait for us although she was alone
I think she fell in love for us in nineteen sixty one
In nineteen sixty one

It seems so long ago, Nancy was alone
A forty five beside her head, an open telephone
We told her she was beautiful, we told her she was free
But none of us would meet her in the House of Mystery
The House of Mystery

And now you look around you, see her everywhere
Many use her body, many comb her hair
In the hollow of the night when you are cold and numb
You hear her talking freely then
She's happy that you've come
She's happy that you've come

Seems So Long Ago, Nancy

     Am7                      F
It's four in the morning, the end of December
Dm                           Em7
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
 Am7                   F
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living
       Dm                       Em7
There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening


Am7                 Bm7                  Am7               Bm7 
I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert
Am7                G                          Am7                  G   
You're living for nothing now, I hope you're keeping some kind of record


          C                                G
Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair
                              Am7
She said that you gave it to her
                                    Bm7   G
That night that you planned to go clear
F                 Em7
Did you ever go clear?


         Am7                      F
Ah, the last time we saw you you looked so much older
Dm                             Em7
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
       Am7                    F
You'd been to the station to meet every train
   Dm                      Em7
And you came home without Lili Marlene


         Am7        Bm7         Am7          Bm7
And you treated my woman to a flake of your life
Am7                G  Am7                G
And when she came back she was nobody's wife


        C                                   G
Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
                      Am7
One more thin gypsy thief
                    Bm7   G
Well I see Jane's awake
F                Em7
She sends her regards


Am7    F      Dm     Em7


      Am7                    F
And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
Dm                   Em7
What can I possibly say?
   Am7                  F           
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
Dm                        Em7
I'm glad you stood in my way


Am7               Bm7    Am7               Bm 
If you ever come by here, for Jane or for me
Am7                  G      Am7                 G
Well your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free


           C                          G
Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
                   Am7
I thought it was there for good
             Bm7   G
So I never tried


     C                                G
And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
                              Am7
She said that you gave it to her
                                    Bm7   G
That night that you planned to go clear
F              Em7
Sincerely, L. Cohen

The Partisan

intro:
 |C  Am|C  Am|

1st:
     C                 Am 
I've heard there was a secret chord
     C                   Am
That David played and it pleased the Lord
    F                G             C        G
But you don't really care for music do you

   C                   F           G
It goes like this the fourth the fifth
    Am              F
The minor fall the major lift
    G                 Em        Am
The baffled King composing Hallelujah

     F           Am
Hallelujah hallelujah
     F           C-G-C-C
Hallelujah hallelujah

2nd:
      C                      Am
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
     C              Am
You saw her bathing on the roof
    F             G              C         G
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you

    C              F       G
She tied you to a kitchen chair
    Am                        F
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
    G                  Em            Am
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

     F          Am
Hallelujah hallelujah
     F          C-G-C-C
Hallelujah hallelujah

3rd:
C               Am
Maybe I've been here before
  C               Am
I know this room I've walked this floor
F              G            C           G
I used to live alone before I knew you

     C                F          G
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Am          F
Love is not a victory march
G                   Em             Am
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

      F         Am
Hallelujah hallelujah
      F         C-G-C-C
Hallelujah hallelujah

5th:
      C                   Am
There was a time when you let me know
      C           Am
What's real and going on below
    F              G             C      G
But now you never show it to me do you

    C               F        G
And remember when I moved in you
  Am             F
The Holy Dark was moving too
     G              Em            Am
And every breath we drew was hallelujah

     F          Am
Hallelujah hallelujah
     F          C-G-C-C
Hallelujah hallelujah

6th:
C              Am
Maybe there's a God above
     C          Am
And all I ever learned from love
F                   G               C        G
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you

        C                  F       G
And it's not a cry you can hear at night
      Am                 F
It's not somebody who's seen the light
 G                Em               Am
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

     F           Am
Hallelujah hallelujah
     F           C-G
Hallelujah hallelujah
     F           Am
Hallelujah hallelujah
     F           C-G-C
Hallelujah hallelujah

Hallelujah

A                D
I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm,
     Bm
your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm,
     G
yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new,
   D
in city and in forest they smiled like me and you,
    Bm
but now it's come to distances and both of us must try,
     G
your eyes are soft with sorrow,
A                              D A 
Hey, that's no way to say good bye.

        D
I'm not looking for another as I wander in my time,
Bm
walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme
G
you know my love goes with you as your love stays with me,
     D
it's just the way it changes, like the shoreline and the sea,
    Bm
but let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie,
     G
your eyes are soft with sorrow,
A                              D A
Hey, that's no way to say good bye.

CHORUS #1:
           C                               G
Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair
                             Am
She said that you gave it to her
                                    Bm  G
That night that you planned to go clear
F                  Em7
Did you ever go clear?

Ah, the last time we saw you you looked so much older

Well, your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free

A                        G
The Woman in blue, she's asking for revenge
A                                    G
The man in white that's you, says he has no friends
A                             G
The river is swollen up with, rusty cans

And the trees are burning in your promised land



Chorus

And there are no letters in the mailbox
D                                A
And there are no grapes upon the vine
D                                  A
And there are no chocolates in the boxes anymore
                 E               A
And there are no diamonds in the mine


Verse 2

Well you tell me that your lover has a broken limb
A                                       G
You say your kinda restless now and it's on account of him
A                                     G
Well I saw the man in question it was just the other night

He was eating up a lady where the lions and christians fight

And there are no grapes upon the vine
D                                  A
And there are no chocolates in the boxes anymore
                 E               A
And there are no diamonds in the mine



Verse 3
A                          G
There is no comfort in the covens of the witch
A                                G
Some very clever doctor went and sterilised the bitch
A                                   G
And the only man of energy, yes the revolution's pride
A                                  E
He trained a hundred women just to kill an unborn child



Chorus

And there are no letters in your mailbox

And there are no grapes upon your vine
D                                  A
And there are no chocolates in your boxes anymore

And there are no diamonds in your mine

Diamonds In The Mine

Dm      A   Dm   Am  Em  Am
It seems so long ago, Nancy was alone
  C               Dm                       C      G      C
Looking at the Late Late show through a semi-precious stone
 E                Am         F             C
In the House of Honesty her father was on trial
 G                Am          Em           F
In the House of Mystery there was no one at all
       C      G     Am
there was no one at all

It seems so long ago, none of us were strong
Nancy wore green stockings and she slept with everyone
She never said she'd wait for us although she was alone
I think she fell in love for us in nineteen sixty one
In nineteen sixty one

It seems so long ago, Nancy was alone
A forty five beside her head, an open telephone
We told her she was beautiful, we told her she was free
But none of us would meet her in the House of Mystery
The House of Mystery

And now you look around you, see her everywhere
Many use her body, many comb her hair
In the hollow of the night when you are cold and numb
You hear her talking freely then
She's happy that you've come
She's happy that you've come

C
I loved you in the morning our kisses deep and warm
      Am
Your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm 
       F  
Yes, many loved before us I know that we are not new
     C
In city and in forest they smiled like me and you
     Am
But now it's come to distances and both of us must try
       F
Your eyes are soft with sorrow
 G                          C  G
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye 

I'm not looking for another
As I wander in my time
Walk me to the corner
Our steps will always rhyme
You know my love goes with you
As your love stays with me
It's just the way it changes
Like the shoreline and the sea
But let's not talk of love or chains
And things we can't untie
Your eyes are soft with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye 

I loved you in the morning
Our kisses deep and warm
Your hair upon the pillow
Like a sleepy golden storm 
Yes, many loved before us
I know that we are not new
In city and in forest
They smiled like me and you
But let's not talk of love or chains
And things we can't untie
Your eyes are soft with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye

Hey, That's No Way To Say Goodbye

Bird On A Wire

A           E             A                   D
Like a bird on the wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir

I have tried in my way to be free
        A         E             A                             D

I have saved all my ribbons for thee

         I hope that you can just let it go by

         If I, if I have been untrue,
       Bm                                 E
         I hope you know it was never to you.


Like a baby stillborn, like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
But I swear by this song and by all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee.
         I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch
         He said to me, "You must not ask for so much."
         And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
         She cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"

        A           E             A                   D
Like a bird on the wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir

I have tried in my way to be free

I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel,
         C          G            F
you were talking so brave and so sweet,
C         G           F      C
giving me head on the unmade bed,
           C                     G
while the limousines wait in the street.
F                          Am
Those were the reasons and that was New York,
        Am              G              F
we were running for the money and the flesh.
    F                            C
And that was called love for the workers in song
         C                           G
probably still is for those of them left.

        F                       C
Ah but you got away, didn't you babe,
          C          G/B          Am
you just turned your back on the crowd,
F                                      C
you got away, I never once heard you say,
   F                 C
I need you, I don't need you,
   F                 C
I need you, I don't need you
    C                    G
and all of that jiving around.


I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
you were famous, your heart was a legend.
You told me again you preferred handsome men
but for me you would make an exception.
And clenching your fist for the ones like us
who are oppressed by the figures of beauty,
you fixed yourself up, you said, "Well never mind,
we are ugly but we have the music."

And then you got away, didn't you babe...

I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best,
I can't keep track of each fallen robin.
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel,
that's all, I don't even think of you that often.

Chelsea Hotel No 2

Am
Dance me to your beauty
       Em
With a burning violin
Am
Dance me through the panic
        Em  
Till I'm gathered safely in
Am
Lift me like an olive branch
    Em
And be my homeward dove
  B7                     Em
Dance me to the end of love
  B7                     Em
Dance me to the end of love



Let me see your beauty
When the witnesses are gone
Let me feel you moving
Like they do in Babylon
Show me slowly what I only
Know the limits of
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the wedding now
Dance me on and on
Dance me very tenderly and
Dance me very long
We're both of us beneath our love
We're both of us above
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the children
Who are asking to be born
Dance me through the curtains
That our kisses have outworn
Raise a tent of shelter now
Though every thread is torn
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love


Dance me to your beauty
With a burning violin
Dance me through the panic
Till I'm gathered safely in
Touch me with your naked hand
Or touch me with your glove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Dance Me To The End Of Love

G                   Em
I heard there was a secret chord
G                        Em
that David played and it pleased the Lord,
    C				    G
But you don't really care for music do you.
G		      C		 D
It goes like this the fourth the fifth,
Em		       C     D
the minor fall and the major lift
D				Em
The baffled king composing hallelujah

Halluejah

Verses:

G                        Em
  The rain falls down on last year's man
         F                                C
That's a Jews harp on the table, that's a crayon in his hand.
        G                             Em
And the corners of the blue print are ruined since they rolled
    F                                              C
Far past the stems of thumb tacks that still throw shadows on the wood.
        F                    D          G               D
And the skylight is like the skin for a drum I'll never mend
    G                  Em                 F                    C
And all the rain falls down, Amen, on the works of last year's man.

(Same chord progression for the other verses)

I met a lady, she was playing with her soldiers in the dark
Oh, one by one she had to tell them that her name was Joan of Arc.
I was in that army, yes I stayed a little while
I want to thank you Joan of Arc for treating me so well.
And tho'  I wear a uniform I was not born to fight
All these wounded boys you lie beside; good night my friends, goodnight.

I came upon a wedding that old fam'lies had contrived
Bethlehem the bridegroom Babylon the bride.
Great Babylon was naked Ah! she stood there trembling for me
And Bethlehem inflamed us both like the shy one at some orgy.
And when we fell together all our flesh was like a veil
That I had to draw aside to see the serpent eat its tail.

Some women wait for Jesus and some women wait for Cain
So I hang upon my altar and I hoist my axe again.
And I take the one who finds me back to where it all began
When Jesus was the honeymoon and Cain was just the man.
And we read from pleasant bibles that are bound in blood an skin
That the wilderness is gathering all its children back again.

The rain falls down on last year's man
An hour has gone by and he has not moved his hand.
But everything will happen if he only gives the word
The lovers will rise up and the mountains touch the ground.
But the skylight is like skin for a drum I'll never mend
And all the rain falls down, Amen, on the works of last year's man.

"Plant some crops and pray for rain, maybe raise a little cane.

I'm an orphan now, and I'm only passing through."

I was with Washington at Valley Ford, shivering in the snow.

Passing Through

Intro: C  Csus4 C 3x

   C                C
Suzanne takes you down
         C               C
To her place near the river
         Dm                Dm
You can hear the boats go by
          Dm                 Dm
You can spend the night beside her
          C                      C
And you know that she's half crazy
            C                   C
But that's why you want to be there
         Em                 Em
And she feeds you tea and oranges
           F                   F
That come all the way from China
          C                     C
And just when you mean to tell her
          Dm                 Dm
That you have no love to give her
          C                   C
Then she gets you on her wavelength
        Dm              Dm
And she lets the river answer
            C                  C   Csus4  C   Csus4  C
That you've always been her lover
         Em              Em
And you want to travel with her
         F                 F
And you want to travel blind
         C                      C
And you know that she will trust you
             Dm                 Dm           C
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind.

And Jesus was a sailor
When he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching
From his lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain
Only drowning men could see him
He said: "All men will be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them"
But he himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you think maybe you'll trust him
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.

Now Suzanne takes your hand
And she leads you to the river
She is wearing rags and feathers
From Salvation Army counters
And the sun pours down like honey
On our lady of the harbour
And she shows you where to look
Among the garbage and the flowers
There are heroes in the seaweed
There are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love
And they will lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds the mirror
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that you can trust her
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind.

Suzanne

Am         C         E          Am
When they poured across the border
Am    C         E         Am
I was cautioned to surrender,
Am       C        G
this I could not do;
F                 C       Am C E
I took my gun and vanished.

I have changed my name so often,
I've lost my wife and children
but I have many friends,
and some of them are with me.

An old woman gave us shelter,
kept us hidden in the garret,
then the soldiers came;
she died without a whisper.

There were three of us this morning
I'm the only one this evening
but I must go on;
the frontiers are my prison.

Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,
through the graves the wind is blowing,
freedom soon will come;
then we'll come from the shadows.

Les Allemands étaient chez moi (The Germans were at my home)
ils m'ont dit "Résigne-toi" (They said, "Surrender,")
mais je n'ai pas pu (this I could not do)
j'ai repris mon arme (I took my weapon again)

J'ai changé cent fois de nom (I have changed names a hundred times)
j'ai perdu femme et enfants (I have lost wife and children)
mais j'ai tant d'amis (But I have so many friends)
j'ai la France entière (I have all of France)

Un vieil homme dans un grenier (An old man, in an attic)
pour la nuit nous a cachés (Hid us for the night)
les Allemands l'ont pris (The Germans captured him)
il est mort sans surprise (He died without surprise)

Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,
through the graves the wind is blowing,
freedom soon will come;
then we'll come from the shadows.

[Intro]
C          Em                  Am              F
Feels like,  I'm standing in a timeless dream
  C         Em               Am    F
A light mist   of pale amber rose
C          Em              Am            F
Feels like,  I'm lost in a deep cloud of heavenly scent
Am       G            F
Touching,  discovering you


[Verse 1]
C           Em                  Am              F
Those days,  of warm rains come rushing back to me
         C        Em              Am   F
Miles of windless,   summer night air
       C       Em             Am              F
Secret moments,   shot in the heat of the afternoon
           C        Em             Am     F
Out of the stillness,   soft spoken words

Near and far, closer together
C
Everywhere, I will be with you
F
Everything, I will do for you

You've got,  the most unbelievable blue eyes I've ever seen
C         Em                   Am    F
You've got, me almost melting away
      C        Em                      Am           F
As we lay there,   under a blue sky of pure white stars
          C        Em             Am    F
It's like sweetness,  and magical time

Wish I was wrong
Am7                   Em
I wish that you were right here lyin' in my arms

This Love Is Over

Am                              Am
       In a Manner of speaking 
                     Am/G
I just want to say
                    Am/G                 F
That I could never forget the way
                      Dm
You told me everything
                  E7/G#
By saying nothing

Am                              Am
        In a manner of speaking
                  Am/G
I don't understand
                  Am/G                           F
How love in silence becomes reprimand
                            Dm
But the way that i feel about you
     E7/G# 
Is beyond words

  Am               Am/G
O give me the words
                      F                  Dm
Give me the words
                    E7/G#
That tell me nothing
Am               Am/G
O give me the words
                      F                  Dm
Give me the words
                   E7/G#
That tell me everything

In a manner of speaking
Semantics won't do
In this life that we live we live we only make do
And the way that we feel
Might have to be sacrified
So in a manner of speaking
I just want to say
That just like you I should find a way
To tell you everything
By saying nothing.

O give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me nothing
O give me the words...
Give me the words
Give me the words

Verse(s):
Am       C     Am      d

Why she left me? I don't know

But here I stand lost and all alone
