Sisters of Mercy  Leonard Cohen


Oh Sis[A]-ters of M[D]er-cy they are not de[E]-par-ted or[A] gone[D] [A]
They w[C#m]ere wait-ing for[G#m] me when I tho[C#m]ught that I j[G#m]ust cant go [E]on[Esus4] [E]
And th[D]ey brought me their co[A]m-fort and [G]later they [F#m]brought me their [E]so[Esus4]ng[E]
Oh [A]I hope you i[D]nto them you who've been [E]trav-ling so[A] long[D]

[G/D]    [D/A]    [A7]   [D]     [G/D]    [D/A]    [A7]   [D]         [A]        [E]     
Yes you who must leave everything
That you cannot control
It begins with your family,
but soon it comes round to your soul
Well I've been where you're hanging
I think I can see how you're pinned
When you're not feeling holy
Your loneliness says that your've sinned

They lay down beside me
I made my confession to them
They touched both my eyes
And I touched the dew on their hem
If your life is a leaf
That the seasons tear off and condemn
They will bind yoou with love
That is graceful and green as a stem

When I left they were sleeping
I hope you run into them soon
Dont turn on the lights
You can read their address by the moon
And you wont make me jealous
If I hear that they sweetened your night

[D]    [E]  
We werent [A]lov-ers like [D]that
And bes[A]ides it would stil[E]l be all ri[A]ght

We werent lovers like that
And besides it would still be all right

Nice work apart from the fact that all the chords are completely wrong as it starts in B not A as in the transcript, just listen to the CD.
