Nightingale chords by Leonard Cohen (Ver. 2)

Verse 1:
N.C.
I built my house beside the wood
N.C.
So I could hear you singing
N.C.
And it was sweet and it was good
N.C.
And love was all beginning

Chorus:
N.C.
Fare thee well my nightingale
N.C.
'Twas long ago I found you
N.C.
Now all your songs of beauty fail
N.C.
The forest closes 'round you

Interlude:
B E B D#m C#m B

Verse 2:
     B               E
The sun goes down behind a veil
      B                 D#m  C#m
'Tis now that you would call me
    B                E
So rest in peace my nightingale
   B                   F#  B
Beneath your branch of holly

Chorus:
 B                 E      B

     B                 E

The forest closes 'round you
