SO LONG MARIANNE
Leonard Cohen
[Verse 1]
Come Aover to the window, my little dBmarling
DI'd like to try to read your paAlm
GI used to think I was some sort of gyDpsy boy
F#m before I let you take me EhomeEsus4 E E7
[Chorus]
Now Aso long, Marianne,F#m It's time that we began
to lEaughEsus4 and EcryE7 and EcrEsus4y and lEaugh abE7out it Aall againAsus4
[Verse 2]
Well you kAnow that I love to Bmlive with you
D but you make me forget so very mAuch
G I forget to pray for the aDngels
F#m E sus4 E E7
and then the angels forget to pray for us
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
We mAet when we were Bmalmost young
D deep in the green lilac pAark
G You held on to me like I was a cDrucifix
F#m as we went kneeling through the dEark Esus4 E E7
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
Your lAetters they all say that you're beBmside me now
D then why do I feel so alAone
G I'm standing on a ledge and your Dfine spider web
is fF#mastening my ankle to a stEoneEsus4 E E7
[Chorus]
[Verse 5]
For nAow I need your Bmhidden love
D I'm cold as a new razor bAlade
G You left when I told you I was cDurious
F#m I never said that I was bEraveEsus4 E E7
[Chorus]
[Verse 6]
Oh, yAou are really such a pBmretty one
D I see you've gone and changed your Aname again
G And just when I climbed this wDhole mountainside
to wF#mash my eyelids in the raEin Esus4 E E7
[Chorus]

[I found this extra verse written out somewhere. Not on the original recording from the Best Of... Disc]
Oh,A your eyes, well, I fBmorget your eyes
D your body's at home in every sAea
G How come you gave away your nDews to everyone
F#m that you said was a secret to EmeEsus4 E E7
