Night Comes On chords by Leonard Cohen
[3/4 time]
D G D / D G D /
D G D
I went down to the place where I knew she lay waiting
G A
Under the marble and the snow
D G D
I said Mother I'm frightened the thunder and the lightning
G A
I'll never come through this alone
G C G C
She said I'll be with you my shawl wrapped around you
G C G
My hand on your head when you go
D Am F C
And the night came on it was very calm, I wanted the night to go on and on
G D G D /
But she said go back, go back to the world
D G D
We were fighting in Egypt when they signed this agreement
G A
That nobody else had to die
D G D
There was this terrible sound and my father went down
G A
With a terrible wound in his side
G C G C
He said try to go on take my books take my gun
G C G
Remember my son how they lied
D Am
And the night comes on it's very calm
F C
I'd like to pretend that my father was wrong
G D G D /
But you don't want to lie, not to the young
D G D
We were locked in this kitchen I took to religion
G A
And I wondered how long she would stay
D G D G A
I needed so much to have nothing to touch, I've always been greedy that way
G C G C
But my son and my daughter climbed out of the water
G C G
Crying Papa you promised to play
D Am
And they lead me away to the great surprise
F C
It's Papa don't peek, Papa cover your eyes
G D G D /
And they hide, they hide in the world
D G D
Now I look for her always I'm lost in this calling
G A
I'm tied to the threads of some prayer
D G D
Saying when will she summon me when will she come to me
G A
What must I do to prepare
G C G C
When she bends to my longing like a willow like a fountain
G C G
She stands in the luminous air
D Am
And the night comes on it's very calm
F C
I lie in her arms, she says when I'm gone
G D G D /
I'll be yours, yours for a song
D G D
Now the crickets are singing, the vesper bells ringing
G A
The cat's curled asleep in his chair
D G D
I'll go down to Bill's Bar, I can make it that far
G A
And I'll see if my friends are still there
G C G C
Yes and here's to the few who forgive what you do
G C G
And the fewer who don't even care
D Am
And the night comes on, it's very calm
F C
I want to cross over I want to go home
G D G D /
But she says go back, go back to the world
