A BUNCH OF LONESOME HEROES - Leonard Cohen
A Bm
A bunch of lonesome and very quarrelsome heroes
E E7 A Asus4 A
Were smoking out along the open road
Bm
The night was very dark and thick between them
E E7 A Asus4 A
Each man beneath his ordinary load
CHORUS:
D Dmaj7 Bm D A Amaj7 F#m A
"I'd like to tell my story"
B E E7
Said one of them so young and bold
D Dmaj7 Bm D A Amaj7 F#m A
"I'd like to tell my story
F#m E Esus4 E E7
Before I turn into gold"
But no one really could hear him
The night so dark and thick and green
Well I guess that these heroes must always live there
Where you and I have only been
CHORUS #2:
Put out your cigarette, my love
You've been alone too long
And some of us are very hungry now
To hear what it is you've done that was so wrong
I sing this for the crickets
I sing this for the army
I sing this for your children
And for all who do not need me
CHORUS #3:
"I'd like to tell my story"
Said one of them so bold
"Oh yes, I'd like to tell my story
'Cos you know I feel I'm turning into gold"
