Leaving the Table Leonard Cohen
[C] [Am]
[F] [G] [C] [G]
[(G)]I'm leaving the [C]table
I'm out of the [Am]game
I don't know the [Dm]people
In your pi[G]cture frame
If I ever [F]loved you, oh[Fm] no
[C]It's a [E/B]crying [Am]shame
If I ever [F]loved you
[G] If I knew your[C] name[G]
You don't need a lawyer
I'm not making a claim
You don't need to surrender
I'm not taking aim
I don't need a lover, no no
The wretched beast is tame
I don't need a lover
So blow out the flame
There's nobody missing
There is no reward
Little by little
We're cutting the cord
We're spending the treasure
That love cannot afford
I know you can feel it
The sweetness restored
(instrumental verse)
I don't need a reason
For what I became
I've got these excuses
They're tired and lame
I don't need a pardon, no no
There's no one left to blame
I'm leaving the table
[(G)]I'm out of the[Am] game
I'm leaving the t[F]able
[G] I'm out of the g[C]ame
