Leonard Cohen - So Long Marianne - A Bunch Of Lonesome Heroes(Chords)

	        

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.'
