A Bunch Of Lonesome Heroes chords by Leonard Cohen

Verse 1:
 A                      Bm
A bunch of lonesome and very quarrelsome heroes

 E          E7        A   Asus4    A  Asus2    A  Asus2    A
Were smoking out along the open road;

 A                   Bm     Bm/A   Bm  Bm/A   Bm
The night was very dark and thick between them,

 E       E7          A   Asus4    A  Asus2    A
Each man beneath his ordinary load.


Chorus:
 D            A    A/G#
"I'd like to tell my story, "

 B                E   E7
Said one of them so young and bold,

 D            A    A/G#
"I'd like to tell my story,

 F#m           E    E7
Before I turn into gold."


Verse 2:
 A             Bm     Bm/A   Bm  Bm/A   Bm
But no one really could hear him,

 E       E7           A   Asus4    A  Asus2    A  Asus2    A
The night so dark and thick and green;

 A                       Bm     Bm/A   Bm  Bm/A   Bm
Well I guess that these heroes must always live there

 E        E7       A   Asus4    A  Asus2    A  Asus2    A
Where you and I have only been.


Chorus:
 D             A     A/G#
Put out your cigarette, my love,

 B            E   E7
You've been alone too long;

 D              A     A/G#
And some of us are very hungry now

  F#m                     E  Esus4    E  E7
To hear what it is you've done that was so wrong.


Verse 3:
 A            Bm    Bm/A   Bm  Bm/A   Bm
I sing this for the crickets,

 E      E7      A   Asus4    A  Asus2    A  Asus2    A
I sing this for the army,

 A            Bm     Bm/A   Bm  Bm/A   Bm
I sing this for your children

 E      E7         A  Asus4    A  Asus2    A  Asus2    A
And for all who do not need me.


Chorus:
  D           A     A/G#
"I'd like to tell my story, "

 B            E  E7
Said one of them so bold,

 D                A   A/G#
"Oh yes, I'd like to tell my story

  F#m                    E    E7
'Cause you know I feel I'm turning into gold."
