alexandra leaving
L. Cohen
 
Каподастр на 2-м ладу
 
Вступление: G - 2p.

G                              Em
 Suddenly the night has grown colder.
Am                    Am/g        D
  The god of love preparing to depart.
    G                      Em    C/h:Em
Alexandra hoisted on his shoulder,
Am                       D               G
  They slip between the sentries of the heart.
   D                            Am
Upheld by the simplicities of pleasure,
   C                                  D
Became the light, they formlessly entwine;
     G                          Em    C/h:Em
And radiant beyond your widest measure
Am                     D             G  
  They fall among the voices in the wild.
             C         D             Em
It’s not a trick, your senses all deceiving,
           Am                      Dsus2
A fitful dream, the morning will exhaust
         G                Em
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
Am           D              G  G+c:G
  Say goodbye to Alexandra lost.

Even though she sleeps upon your satin;
Even though she wakes you with a kiss.
Do not say the moment was imagined;
Do not stoop to strategies like this.
As someone long prepared for this to happen,
Go firmly to the window. Drink it in.
Exquisite music. Alexandra laughing.
Your firm commitments tangible again.
And you who had the honor of her evening,
And by the honor had your own restored
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving;
Say goodbye to Alexandra lost.
         G                Em
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
Am           D              G  G+c:G G G+c:G
  Alexandra leaving with a lot

As someone long prepared for the occasion;
In full command of every plan you wrecked
Do not choose a coward’s explanation
that hides behind the cause and the effect.
             C      D             Em
And you who were bewildered by a meaning;
                Am                  Dsus2
Whose code was broken, crucifix uncrossed
         G                Em
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
Am           D              G 
  Say goodbye to Alexandra lost.
         G                Em
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
    Am             D          G
And say goodbye to Alexandra lost.
