Steer Your Way Leonard Cohen
[A/C#] [B/D#]
[C#] [C#m]
Steer your [C#m]way past the ruins of the Altar and the Mall
Steer your [F#m]way through the fables of Creation and The Fall
Steer your [C#m]way past the Palaces that rise above the rot
Year by [G#]year, month by month, day by[A/F#] day, [B] thought by th[C#]ought [C#m]
Steer your heart past the Truth you believed in yesterday
Such as Fundamental Goodness and the Wisdom of the Way
Steer your heart, precious heart, past the women whom you bought
Year by year, month by month, day by day, thought by thought
Steer your way through the pain that is far more real than you
That has smashed the Cosmic Model that has blinded every View
And please don't make me go there, tho' there be a God or not
Year by year, month by month, day by day, thought by thought
They w[A]hisper still, the injured stones, the blunted mountain[E]s weep
As he d[A]ied to make men holy, let us die to make things c[E]heap
And s[B]ay the Mea Culpa, which you've p[A]robably forgot
Year by [G#]year, month by month, day by d[A]ay, [B] thought by t[C#]hought [C#m]
Steer your way, Oh my heart, tho' I have no right to ask
To the one who was never never equal to the task
Who knows he's been convicted, who knows he will be shot
Year by year, month by month, day by day, thought by thought
They whisper still, the injured stones, the blunted mountains weep
As he died to make men holy, let us die to make things cheap
And say your Mea Culpa, which you gradually forgot
Year by year, month by month, day by day, thought by thought
