Going Home Leonard Cohen
[Bm] [A] [D] [Gadd9]
[A/C#] [D/F#] [G]
I lo[D]ve to speak with Leonard
He's a s[Em]portsman and a shepherd
He's a l[G]azy bastard
living in a [D]suit
But he d[D]oes say what I tell him
Even tho[Em]ugh it isn't welcome
He just [G]doesn't have the freedom
to refus[D]e[A/C#]
He will [Bm]speak these words of wisdom
Like a s[A]age, a man [F#]of vision
Though he kn[Bm]ows he's really [E]nothing
but the [G]brief elabor[E/G#]ation of a tube[A]
Going ho[D]me without my so[Em]rrow
Going ho[C]me sometime tomo[G]rrow
Going ho[C]me to where it's[G] better
than bef[Bm]ore[A]
Going ho[D]me without my bu[Em]rden
Going ho[C]me behind the cu[G]rtain
Going ho[C]me without the c[G]ostume
that I w[Bm]ore
[(Bm)] [A] [D] [Gadd9]
[A/C#] [D/F#] [G]
He w[D]ants to write a love song
An a[Em]nthem of forgiving
A ma[G]nual for living
with def[D]eat[A]
A cr[D]y above the suffering
A sa[C]crifice reco[Em]vering
But that isn[G]'t what I need him
to compl[D]ete[A/C#]
I wa[Bm]nt him to be certain
That he d[A]oesn't have a b[F#]urden
That he [Bm]doesn't need a [E]vision
That he [G]only has permis[E/G#]sion
to d[A]o my instant bid[F#/A#]ding which is to
[Bm]say what I have [E/G#]told him to rep[A]eat
Going home without my sorrow
Going home sometime tomorrow
Going home to where it's better than before
Going home without my burden
Going home behind the curtain
Going home without the costume that I wore
[(Bm)] [A] [D] [Gadd9]
[A/C#] I'[D/F#]m going ho[G]me without my sorrow
Going home sometime tomorrow
Going home to where it's better than before
Going home without my burden
Going home behind the curtain
Going home without this costume that I wore
[(Bm)] [A] [D] [Gadd9]
[A/C#]I love[D/F#] to speak[G] with Leonard
He's a sportsman and a shepherd
He's a lazy bastard living in a suit
