Sisters of Mercy Leonard Cohen
Capo on II
[E]Oh the [A]Sisters of [D]Mercy they [A]are not de[E]parted or [A]gone[D] [A]
They were [C#m]waiting for [G#m]me when I [C#m]thought that I [G#m]just can't go [E]on[Esus4] [E]
And they [D]brought me their [A]comfort and [G]later they [F#m]brought me this [E]so[Esus4]ng[E]
Oh I [A]hope you run [D]into them [A]you who've been [E]traveling so [A]long[D]
[D] [E]
Yes [A]you who must l[D]eave every[A]thing that you [E]cannot contr[A]ol[D] [A]
It be[C#m]gins with your [G#m]family, but [C#m]soon it comes r[G#m]ound to your [E]soul[Esus4] [E]
Well I've [D]been where you're [A]hanging I [G]think I can [F#m]see how you're [E]pinned[Esus4] [E]
When you're n[A]ot feeling [D]holy your [A]loneliness [E]says that you've [A]sinned[D]
[D] [E]
They lay d[A]own beside [D]me I made m[A]y con[E]fession to t[A]hem[D] [A]
They [C#m]touched both my [G#m]eyes and I [C#m]touched the [G#m]dew on their [E]hem[Esus4] [E]
If your [D]life is a [A]leaf that the s[G]easons tear [F#m]off and cond[E]em[Esus4]n[E]
They will [A]bind you with [D]love that is g[A]raceful and [E]green as a [A]stem[D]
[D] [E]
When I [A]left they were s[D]leeping I h[A]ope you run i[E]nto them [A]soon[D] [A]
Dont [C#m]turn on the [G#m]lights you can [C#m]read their ad[G#m]dress by the [E]moon[Esus4] [E]
And you [D]won't make me j[A]ealous if I [G]hear that they [F#m]sweetened your [E]night[Esus4] [E]
[D] [E]
We weren't [A]lovers like [D]that and bes[A]ides it would [E]still be all [A]right
We weren't [A]lovers like [D]that and bes[A]ides it would [E]still be all [A]right
