Blessed Is The Memory
Leonard Cohen
D
Verse 1
D I remember the promise Bm That you made in the barn D When the kittens were born Bm And you could not keep warm D So you moved away the mountain Bm That the sun rose behind D And you said yourself a prayer Bm And laid down with the blind
Chorus
A But you lost them in your freedom Bm And you need him now, you're wild A Blessed is the memory Bm Of everybody's child
Interlude
|: D Bm D Bm |
Verse 2
D And the vow of compassion Bm That you swore through your teeth D When the war began to end Bm And the photographs weep D Well, nobody blames you Bm As the train pulls away D With its cargo of snow Bm For these German paper-weights
Chorus
A But you lost them in your freedom Bm And you need him now, you're wild A Blessed is the memory Bm Of everybody's child
Interlude
|: D Bm D Bm |
Verse 3
D Well, it's five in the morning Bm There's no one home D Except for your wife Bm And your child on the phone D Somebody's got to listen Bm To a promise or two D Oh, this room is far too small Bm For a pilgrim like you
Chorus
A But you lost them in your freedom Bm And you need him now, you're wild A Blessed is the memory Bm Of everybody's child
Interlude
|: D Bm D Bm |
Verse 4
D So, now that you've decided Bm To follow the sun D Like a shadow of birds Bm Or a king on the run D Oh, your chains are too dark Bm For the seas you must swim D You are smiling at the seaweed Bm But your smile is too grim
Chorus
A But you lost them in your freedom D Dsus4 D And you need him now, you're wild A Blessed is the memory D Of everybody's child A Blessed is the memory D Dsus4 D Of everybody's child A Blessed is the memory D Of everybody's child
