I Tried To Leave You chords by Leonard Cohen

Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro:
Em Bm     Em Bm

Verse 1:
Em         Bm         Em       Bm
I tried to leave you, I don't deny
Em              Bm             D               A
   I closed the book on us, at least a hundred times
    C             G               B      B A G F#
I'd wake up every morning by your side

Verse 2:
Em           Bm   Em              Bm
The years go by,    you lose your pride
Em           Bm              D             A
The baby's crying,   so you do not go outside
    C                  G                   B     B A G F#
And all your work it's right   before your eyes
Verse 3:
Em            Bm         Em               Bm
Goodnight, my darling,      I hope you're satisfied
Em                  Bm             D             A
The bed is kind of narrow, but my arms are open wide
    C                  G                B      B A G F#
And here's a man still working for your smile

Outro:
Em  Bm         Em   Bm
