Tower of Song Leonard Cohen
Intro F F
F
Well my friends are gone and my hair is grey
I ache in the places where I used to play
Bb F
And I'm crazy for love but I'm not coming on
C Bb F
I'm just paying my rent everyday In the Tower of Song
(Do dom dom dom a do dom dom)
F
I said to Hank Williams: How lonely does it get?
Hank Williams hasn't answered yet.
Bb F
But I hear him coughing all night long
(Do dom dom dom a do dom dom)
C Bb F
Oh a hundred floors above me In the Tower of Song
instrumental F F Bb F C B Bb F
F
I was born like this, I had no choice.
I was born with the gift of a golden voice.
Bb F
And twenty-seven angels from the Great beyond
(Do dom dom dom a do dom dom)
C Bb F
They tied me to this table right here In the Tower of Song
(Do ron ron ron a do ron ron)
F
So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll
I'm very sorry, baby, doesn't look like me at all)
Bb F
I'm standing by the window where the light is strong
(Do dom dom dom a do dom dom)
C Bb F
Ah they don't let a woman kill you, not In the Tower of Song
instrumental F F BbF C B Bb F
F
Now you can say that I've grown bitter, but of this you may be sure:
The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor Bb F
And there's a mighty judgment coming But I may be wrong
(Do dom dom dom a do dom dom)
C Bb F
You see, you hear these funny voices In the Tower of Song
(Do dom dom dom a do dom dom)
Dm C
I see you standing on the other side
Dm C
I don't know how the river got so wide
Bb F
I loved you, baby, way back when
(Do dom dom dom a do dom dom)
Dm C
And all the bridges are burning that we might have crossed
Dm C
But I feel so close to everything that we lost
Bb C B Bbm
We'll never, never have to lose it again
F
I bid you farewell, I don't know when I'll be back
They're moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track
Bb F
But You'll be hearing from me, baby Long after I'm gone
Do ron ron ron a do ron ron
C Bb F
I'll be speaking to you sweetly from a window In the Tower of Song
instrumental F F Bb C B Bb F
