So Long Marianne - Leonard Cohen | Guitar Chords

[Verse 1]
---------------------
A     A                             Bm
 Come over to the window, my little darling
D                             A
 I'd like to try to read your palm
G                                  D
 I used to think I was some kind of Gypsy boy
F#m                         E
   Before I let you take me home

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
    A                 F#m
Now so long, Marianne,   it's time that we began
   E                                        A
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again

[Verse 2]
---------------------
         A                   Bm
Well you know that I love to live with you
D                               A
 But you make me forget so very much
G                         D
 I forget to pray for the angels
             F#m                       E
And then the angels forget to pray for us



[Verse 3]
---------------------
   A                Bm
We met when we were almost young
D                        A
 Deep in the green lilac park
G                               D
 You held on to me like I was a crucifix
F#m                                E
   As we went kneeling through the dark

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
   A                 F#m
Oh so long, Marianne,   it's time that we began
   E                                        A
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again

[Verse 4]
---------------------
     A                                  Bm
Your letters they all say that you're beside me now
D                    A
 Then why do I feel alone?
G                                 D
 I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web
   F#m                     E
Is fastening my ankle to a stone



[Verse 5]
---------------------
    A              Bm
For now I need your  hidden love
D                        A
 I'm cold as a new razor blade
G                               D
 You left when I told you I was curious
F#m                        E
   I never said that I was brave



[Verse 6]
---------------------
A                        Bm
Oh, you are really such a  pretty one
D                                   A
 I see you've gone and changed your name again
G                                   D
 And just when I climbed this whole mountainside
F#m              E
   To wash my eyelids in the rain
