Sisters of Mercy

Song composer: Leonard Cohen
Lyrics author: Leonard Cohen


Oh Sisters of Mercy they are not depar-ted or gone  
C#m Abm C#m Abm Esus4 
They were wait-ing for me when I thought that I just cant go on   
F#m Esus4 
And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me their song  
Oh I hope you into them you who've been trav-ling so long 
G/D D/A A7 
   
G/D D/A A7 
          
       
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
   
           
            We werent lov-ers like that
           
            And besides it would still be all right
            We werent lovers like that
            And besides it would still be all right
