Tower Of Song Chords by Leonard Cohen

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Well my friends are gone and [B] my hair is gray
I ache in the places where I used to play
[E] And I'm crazy for love, but I'm not [B] coming home
_ _ _ [F#] I'm just paying my rent every [E] day in the [B] Tower of Song
Dum, dum, dum, dee dum dum dum
[B]
I said to Hank Williams, how lonely does it get?
_ Hank Williams hasn't answered yet, but [E] I hear him coughing
_ _ All night long
_ _ _ _ [F#] Oh a hundred [Fm] floors above [E] me, in the [B] Tower of Song _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
_ _ I [B] was born like this, I had no choice
I was born with the gift of a golden voice
[Em] And [E] twenty-seven angels _ from the great [B] beyond
Dum, dum, dum, dee dum dum [F#] dum
They tied me to this table [E] right here in the [B] Tower of Song
Dum, dum, dum, dee dum dum dum
So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll
I'm very sorry baby, it doesn't look like me at all
I'm standing by the window _ [G] where the light [B] is strong
Dum, dum, dum, dee dum dum dum
How [F#] they don't let a woman kill [E] you, not in the Tower [B] of Song
Dum, dum,
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
_ dum, dee dum dum dum
Now [B] 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
And [E] there's a mighty judgment coming, _ but I may [B] be wrong
Dum, dum, dum, dee dum dum dum
You [F#] see I hear these funny voices [E] _ in the Tower [B] of Song
Dum, dum, dum, dee dum dum dum
[G#m] I see you standing [F#] on the other side
[G#m] I don't know how the [F#] river got so wide
[E] I loved you baby, _ _ _ way [B] back when
Dee _ dum dum
And [G#m] all the bridges are burning [F#] that we might have crossed
But [G#m] I feel so close to [F#] everything that we lost
[E] We'll never, _ we'll never have to lose [F#] it again _ _
_ I _ [B] bid you farewell, I don't know when I'll be back
_ They're moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track
[E] But you'll be hearing from me baby, long after [B] I'm gone _ _
_ _ _ [F#] I'll be speaking to you [E] sweetly from a window in the Tower [B] of Song _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Yeah, my friends are gone and my hair is grey
I ache in the places where I used to play
[E] And I'm crazy for love, _ but I'm not [B] coming home _ _
_ _ I'm [F#] just paying rent [E] every day in the Tower [B] of Song _ _ _
