Pre-chorus 1
(A minor7) I hear that you're (B minor7) building
your little house (A minor7) deep in the (B minor7) desert
(A minor7) You're living for (G major) nothing now,
I hope you're keeping (A minor7) some kind of (G major) record
Chorus 1
Yes, and (C6) Jane came by with a lock of your (G major) hair
She said that you gave it to (A minor7) her
That night that you planned to go (B minor7) clear (G major)
(F major) Did you ever go clear? (E minor7)
Verse 2
Ah, the last (A minor7) time we saw you
you (F major) looked so much older
Your (D minor) famous blue raincoat
was (E minor7) torn at the shoulder
You'd (A minor7) been to the station
to (F major) meet every train, and
(D minor) You came home without
(E minor7) Lili Marlene
Pre-chorus 2
And you (A minor7) treated my (B minor7) woman
to a (A minor7) flake of your life (B minor7)
(A minor7) And when she came (G major) back
(A minor7) she was nobody's (G major) wife
Chorus 2
Well I (C6) see you there with the rose in your (G major) teeth
One more thin gypsy (A minor7) thief
Well, I see Jane's a (B minor7) wake (G major)
(F major) She sends her regards (E minor7)

Verse 3
And (A minor7) what can I tell you
my brother, (F major) my killer
(D minor) What can I possibly say? (E minor7)
I guess (A minor7) that I miss you,
(F major) I guess I forgive you
(D minor) I'm glad you stood in my way (E minor7)
Pre-chorus 3
(A minor7) If you ever come (B minor7) by here,
(A minor7) for Jane or for me (B minor7)
(A minor7) Well, your enemy is (G major) sleeping,
(A minor7) and his woman is (G major) free
Chorus 3
Yes, and thanks, (C6)
for the trouble you took (G major) from her eyes
I thought it was there (A minor7)
for good so I never (B minor7) tried (G major)
Chorus 4
And (C6) Jane came by with a lock of your (G major) hair
She said that you gave it to (A minor7) her
That night that you planned to go (B minor7) clear (G major)
(F major) Sincerely, L Cohen (E minor7)
