So Long Marianne
Leonard Cohen
Intro: [A] [Asus4] [A] [Asus4]
[A] Come over to the window my little [Bm] darling [D] I'd like to try to read your [A] palm
[G] I used to think I was some kind of [D] gypsy boy [F#m] Before I let you take me [E7] home
Chorus
Now [A] so long Marianne [F#m] it's time we began
To [E7] laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it [A] all again [Asus4] [A] [Asus4]
[A] Well you know that I love to [Bm] live with you [D] But you make me forget so very [A] much
[G] I forget to pray for the [D] angels
And then the [F#m] angels forget to pray for [E7] us
[A] We met when we were [Bm] almost young [D] Deep in the green lilac [A] park
[G] You held on to me like I was a [D] crucifix [F#m] As we went kneeling through the [E7] dark
[A] Your letters they all say that you're be[Bm]side me now [D] Then why do I feel a[A]lone
[G] I'm standing on a ledge and your [D] fine spider web
Is [F#m] fastening my ankle to a [E7] stone
[A] For now I need your [Bm] hidden love [D] I'm cold as a new razor [A] blade
[G] You left when I told you I was [D] curious [F#m] I never said that I was [E7] brave
[A] Oh you are really such a [Bm] pretty one
[D] I see you've gone and changed your [A] name again [G] And just when I climbed this whole [D] mountainside [F#m] To wash my eye[E7]lids in the rain
