Lady Midnight Chords by Leonard Cohen

_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[G] I came by myself to [F] a very [C] crowded place.
_ [G] I was looking for someone who [C] had lines in her face.
I found her there, but she was past all concern. _
I asked her to hold me.
I [Dm] said, Lady, unfold me.
But she scorned me, and she told me I [G] was dead,
_ and I could never return. _ _ _
Well, I argued all night _ [F] like so many have [C] before, _
[G] saying, whatever you give me,
[F] seemed to need so [C] much more.
Then she pointed at me, _ where [F] I kneeled on her floor.
She [C] said, don't try [F] to use me, [Dm] or slyly refuse me.
[C] _ Just win [F] me or lose me.
[G] It is this that the darkness [C] is for. _ _ _
[G] I cried, oh, Lady Midnight, [F] I fear that [C] you grow _ [G] old.
The stars eat your body, [C] and the wind makes you cold.
_ _ If we cry now, she said, _ [F] it will just be ignored.
[C] So I walked through the morning, [Dm] _
sweet early morning.
[C] I could hear my Lady calling.
[G] You've won me, you've won me, [C] my Lord.
_ _ _ [G] You've won me, you've won me, [C] my Lord.
_ _ [G] Yes, you've won me, you've won me, [C] my Lord.
_ _ _ [G] Ah, you've won me, you've won me, my Lord.
