Seems So Long Ago, Nancy Leonard Cohen
Intro
[Bm]
It s[Bm]eems so l[F#]ong ag[Bm]o
[F#m]Nancy w[C#m]as al[F#m]one
[A]Looking at the Lat[Bm]e Late show
Through a[A] semi-pr[E]ecious st[A]one
[C#]In the House of H[F#m]onesty
Her f[D]ather was on tr[A]ial
[E]In the House of M[F#m]ystery
There w[C#]as no one at [D]all
There w[A]as no [E]one at [F#m]all
It seems so long ago
None of us were strong
Nancy wore green stockings
And she slept with everyone
She never said she'd wait for us
Although she was alone
I think she fell in love for us
In nineteen sixty one
In nineteen sixty one
It seems so long ago
Nancy was alone
A forty five beside her head
An open telephone
We told her she was beautiful
We told her she was free
But none of us would meet her in
The House of Mystery
The House of Mystery
And now you look around you
See her everywhere
Many use her body
Many comb her hair
In the hollow of the night
When you are cold and numb
You hear her talking freely then
She's happy that you've come
She's happy that you've come
[Bm] [E] [A]
