Leonard Cohen

A Bm A bunch of lonesome and very quarrelsome heroes E E7 A Were smoking out along the open road; A Bm The night was very dark and thick between them, E E7 A Each man beneath his ordinary load. Chorus - A Bunch of Lonesome Heroes D A "I'd like to tell my story," B E E7 Said one of them so young and bold, D A "I'd like to tell my story, F#m E E7 Before I turn into gold." A F#m Now so long, Marianne, It's time that we began E Esus4 E E7 E Esus4 E E7 A Asus4 to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again 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 Esus4 E E7 as we went kneeling through the dark D A Put out your cigarette, my love, B E E7 You've been alone too long; D A And some of us are very hungry now F#m E Esus4 E E7 To hear what it is you've done that was so wrong. A Bm Oh, you are really such a pretty one D A I see you've gone and changed your name again G D And just when I climbed this whole mountainside F#m E Esus4 E E7 to wash my eye__lids in the rain A F#m Oh so long, Marianne, It's time that we began E Esus4 E E7 E Esus4 E E7 A Asus4 to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again D A "I'd like to tell my story, " B E E7 Said one of them so bold, D A "Oh yes, I'd like to tell my story F#m E E7 'Cause you know I feel I'm turning into gold."
