Chords for Belfast, Waiting for the Miracle, Leonard Cohen

_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ [B] _ _
[Em] _ _ [D] I've been waiting there [E] and there,
_ [Em] _ _ [E] _ _ [B] _ _ [Gb]
waiting to see _ [D] the way of [Em] my life,
the way of _ _ _ _ [D] _
certification.
_ I believe,
_ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ but I was waiting [Bm] _ [C] for a miracle,
[D] for [A] a [B] miracle.
_ [Em] _ _ [Bm] _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ You really loved me,
[D] you didn't see [Em] my hand, _
_ _ _ _ And I know it must have hurt you.
[D] _ It must have hurt you.
_ _ _ _ You have [D] to stand beneath my window.
_ With your bugle and [Ebm] your drum. _
_ _ [Em] _ _ [G] _ And wait [D] _ [C] for _ [D] _ [B] the miracle to come.
_ [Bm] _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ You will be moved.
_ [Bm] _ No one will [Em] like it here.
_ _ _ _ There's not much entertainment.
_ [D] And the critic from our city
_ _ _ _ _ [D] who thinks he's Mozart
but it sounds [Eb] like a bubblegum.
_ _ [Em] I _ [Bm] know it's [D] _ _ [C] _ _ [D] not [B] a _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ farce.
[Em] I know it's not a farce.
_ _ _ [B] I have lived in this happy,
_ [Em] sincere little world.
You will not be allowed [Am] to do
when you know what you've been taken.
You have better things [Em] to do.
Wait _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] for the miracle.
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ The pain of [Em] the beginning.
[D] The tears of the sea of the [Em] wind. _
_ _ _ _ _ All for the sake of you and me.
_ [D] We are all the same of you [Em] and me.
_ _ _ _ _ [D] It is a time of fun.
From your fingers and [Ebm] your drum. _
_ _ [Em] _ _ And we will _
[Bm] all [C] follow you.
[D] But [B] I don't have to go.
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
It's easy.
_ [D] _ We've been around [Em] for too long.
_ _ _ _ _ Let's be alone together.
[D] _ Let's see if we're [Em] lost. _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] Let's see something crazy.
_ Something that's in [Ebm] your heart.
_ _ [Em] _ I'm _ afraid.
[D] _ _ [C] _ _ [D] I [Eb] don't want to be alone.
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [Em] _ _

when you know what you've been taken.

Wait for the miracle.
_ The pain of the [C] beginning.
When you've got to go on waiting.
_ _ _ [Eb] Waiting for you.
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] When [F] you've fallen on [Em] the highway.
[D] And you're lying in [Em] the rain. _
_ _ _ _ The [E] man is scared of your tomb.
[D] The poor poor person [Bm] you can't [Em] complain.
_ _ _ _ [B] You [D] ask me for information.
_ That's when you've got to play [Eb] it dumb. _
[Eb] _ _ [B] He just slept in your [Em] hotel room.
