SISTERS OF MERCY - Leonard Cohen
D G D A D G D
Oh Sis-ters of Mer-cy they are not de-par-ted or gone
F#m C#m F#m C#m A Asus4 A
They were wait-ing for me when I thought that I just cant go on
G D C Bm A Asus4 A
And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me their song
D G D A D G D
Oh I hope you run into them you who've been trav-ling so long
C/G G/D D7 G C/G G/D D7 G D A
D G D A D G D
Yes you who must leave everything That you cannot control
F#m C#m F#M C#m A Asus4 A
It begins with your family, but soon it comes round to your soul
G D C Bm A Asus4 A
Well Ive been where you're hanging I think I can see how you're pinned
D G D A D G D
When you're not feeling holy Your loneliness says that your've sinned
C/G G/D D7 G C/G G/D D7 G D A

D G D A D G D
They lay down beside me I made my confession to them
F#m C#m F#m C#m A Asus4 A
They touched both my eyes And I touched the dew on their hem
G D C Bm A Asus4 A
If your life is a leaf That the seasons tear off and condemn
D G D A D G D
They will bind you with love That is graceful and green as a stem
C/G G/D D7 G C/G G/D D7 G D A
D G D A D G D
When I left they were sleeping I hope you run into them soon
F#m C#m F#m C#m A Asus4 A
Dont turn on the lights You can read their address by the moon
G D C Bm A Asus4 A
And you wont make me jealous If I hear that they sweetened your night
D G D A D G D
We werent lov-ers like that And besides it would still be all right
D G D A D G D
We werent lovers like that And besides it would still be all right
