One of Us Cannot Be Wrong Leonard Cohen
Intro
[A]
[A]I lit a thin green c[Bm]andle t[D]o make you jealous of m[A]e
But the room just filled up with mosq[Bm]uitos, they h[D]eard that my body was fr[E]ee
Then [F#m]I took the dust of a l[C#m]ong sleepless night and I p[D]ut it in your little sh[A]oe
And th[Bm]en I confess that I t[G]ortured the dress that you w[Bm]ore for the w[A]orld to look thr[G]ough[A]
I showed my heart to the doctor, he said I just have to quit
Then he wrote himself a prescription and your name was mentioned in it
Then he locked himself in a library shelf with the details of our honeymoon
And I hear from the nurse that he's gotten much worse and his practice is all in a ruin
I heard of a saint who had loved you, so I studied all night in his school
He taught that the duty of lovers is to tarnish the golden rule
And just when I was sure that his teachings were pure he drowned himself in the pool
His body is gone but back here on the lawn his spirit continues to drool
An Eskimo showed me a movie he'd recently taken of you
The poor man could hardly stop shivering, his lips and his fingers were blue
I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes and I guess he just never got warm
But you stand there so nice, in your blizzard of ice, oh please let me come into the storm
La, la ,la ,la
