So long Marianne -Leonard Cohen - (1967) 


Couplet: 
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     E7
Before I let you take me home




Refrein: 
    A                F#m
Now so long Marianne        it's time we began
    E                                       A      -  Asus4 - A
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again




Couplet: 
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      E7
And then the angels forget to pray for us




Refrein: 
    A                F#m
Now so long Marianne        it's time we began
    E                                       A      -  Asus4 - A
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again




Couplet: 
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    E7
As we went kneeling through the dark




Refrein: 
    A                F#m
Now so long Marianne        it's time we began
    E                                       A      -  Asus4 - A
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again



Couplet: 
Your letters say that you are beside me now
Then why do I feel alone? 
I’m standing on a ledge and your fine spider web
Is fastening my ankle to a stone



Refrein: 
    A                F#m
Now so long Marianne        it's time we began
    E                                       A      -  Asus4 - A
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again



Couplet:
For now I need your hidden love
I’m cold as a new razor blade
You left when I told you I was curious
I never said that I was brave



Refrein: 
    A                F#m
Now so long Marianne        it's time we began
    E                                       A      -  Asus4 - A
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again



Couplet: 
Oh you are really such a pretty one
I see you’ve gone and changed your name again
And just when I climbed this whole mountainside
To wash my eyelids in the rain



Refrein: 
    A                 F#m
Now so long Marianne        it's time we began
    E                                       A       -  Asus4 - A
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
