The Land of Plenty Leonard Cohen
Intro
G# Fm F#6 (x4)
Don't r[G#]eally h[Fm]ave the c[F#6]ourage
To st[G#]and where [Fm]I must st[F#6]and
Don't r[G#]eally h[Fm]ave the t[F#6]emperament
To l[G#]end a h[Fm]elping h[F#6]and
Don't [G#add4/C]really kn[Cm7]ow who s[Fm]ent me
To r[A#9]aise my voice and s[D#]ay:
May the l[G#]ights in The L[F#]and of Pl[C#]enty
Shine on the tr[D#]uth some d[G#]ay[Fm] [F#6] [G#] [Fm] [F#6]
I don't know why I've come here
Knowing as I do
What you really think of me
What I really think of you
For the millions in a prison
That wealth has set apart
For the Christ who has not risen
From the caverns of the heart
For the [Fm]innerm[D#]ost dec[G#]ision
That we c[Fm]annot[D#] but ob[G#]ey
For what's l[C#]eft of [D#]our rel[Fm]igion
[A#]I lift my voice and pr[D#]ay:[D#sus4] [D#]
May the l[G#]ights in The L[C#/F]and of Pl[F#]enty (May the l[G#]ights)[Fm] [F#6]
May the l[G#]ights in The L[C#/F]and of Pl[F#]enty (May the l[G#]ights)[Fm] [F#6]
May the l[G#]ights in The L[F#]and of Pl[C#]enty
Shine on the tr[D#]uth some d[G#]ay[Fm] [F#6] [G#] [Fm] [F#6]
I know I said I'd meet you
I'd meet you at the store
But I can't buy it, baby
I can't buy it anymore
And I don't really know who sent me
To raise my voice and say:
May the lights in The Land of Plenty
Shine on the truth some day
For the innermost decision
That we cannot but obey
For what's left of our religion
I lift my voice and pray:
May the lights in The Land of Plenty (May the lights)
May the lights in The Land of Plenty (May the lights)
May the lights in The Land of Plenty
Shine on the truth some day
