You Want It Darker Leonard Cohen
[Verse]
[Em]If you are the dealer, I'm out of the game
If you are the healer, it means I[G]'m broken and[Am] lame
[Em]If thine is the glory then mine must be the shame
You want it darker[G] [Am]
We[Em] kill the flame[G] [Am]
[Pre-Cborus]
[Em]Magnified, sanctified, be thy holy name
Vilified, crucified, in [G]the human fram[Am]e
[Em]A million candles burning for the help that never came
You want it darker[G] [Am]
[Cborus]
[C]Hine[G]ni, h[D]ineni
I'm ready, my lord[Em] [G] [Am]
[Verse]
[Em]There's a lover in the story
[Em]But the story's still the same
[Em]There's a lullaby for suffering
And a p[G]aradox to blame[Am]
[Em]But it's written in the scriptures
And it's not some idle claim
You want it darker[G] [Am]
[Em]We kill the flame[G] [Am]
[Verse]
[Em]They're lining up the prisoners
[Em]And the guards are taking aim
[Em]I struggled with some demons
They were m[G]iddle class and[Am] tame
[Em]I didn't know I had permission to murder and to maim
You want it darker[G] [Am]
[Cborus]
[C]Hine[G]ni, h[D]ineni
I'm ready, my lo[Em]rd[G] [Am]
[Post-Cborus]
[Em]Magnified, sanctified, be thy holy name
Vilified, crucified, in [G]the human fram[Am]e
[Em]A million candles burning for the love that never came
You want it darker[G] [Am]
[Em]We kill the flame[G] [Am]
[Verse]
[Em]If you are the dealer, let me out of the game
If you are the healer, I'm broken[G] and lame[Am]
[Em]If thine is the glory then mine must be the shame
You want it darker[G] [Am]
[Cborus]
[C]Hine[G]ni, h[D]ineni
[C]Hine[G]ni, h[D]ineni
I'm ready, my l[Em]ord[G] [Am]
