Version from the I'm your fan tribute album

TOWER OF SONG (Leonard Cohen)

G

Well my friends are gone and my hair is grey

I ache in the places where I used to play
       
C
                                     
G

And I'm crazy for love but I'm not coming on
        
D
                    
C

I'm just paying my rent everyday
                  
G

In the Tower of Song


I said to Hank Williams: How lonely does it get?

Hank Williams hasn't answered yet.
       
C
                             
G

But I hear him coughing all night long
      
D
                   
C

A
 hundred floors above me
                  
G

In the Tower of Song


I was born like this, I had no choice.

I was born with the gift of a golden voice.
       
C
                                    
G

And twenty-seven angels from the Great beyond
       
D
                            
C

They tied me to this table right here
                   
G

In the Tower of Song


So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll

I'm very sorry, baby, doesn't look like me at all
        
C
                                        
G

I'm standing by the window where the light is strong
            
D
                   
C

They don't let a woman kill you, not
                  
G

In the Tower of Song


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
               
C

And there's a mighty judgment coming
                 
G

But I may be wrong
              
D
                    
C

You see, you hear these funny voices
                   
G

In the Tower of Song

Em
                              
D

I see you standing on the other side
Em
                         
D

I don't know how the river got so wide
    
C
                           
G

I loved you, baby, way back when
Em
                                     
D

And all the bridges are burning that we might have crossed
Em
                             
D

But I feel so close to everything that we lost
     
C
                          
D

We'll never have to lose it again

 
G

I bid you farewell, I don't know when I'll be back

They're moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track
               
C

But You'll be hearing from me, baby
               
G

Long after I'm gone
         
D
                              
C

I'll be speaking to you sweetly from a window
             
G

In the Tower of Song
