Tonight Will be Fine

Leonard Cohen : Songs from a Room (1969)

A E A
Sometimes I find I get to thinking of the past.
A E A
We swore to each other then that our love would surely last.
E A
You kept right on loving, I went on a fast,
E A
Now I am too thin and your love is too vast.
D A D A
But I know from your eyes, And I know from your smile:
D A
That tonight will be fine, will be fine, will be fine,
E E7 A
Will be fine for a while.
 
A E A
I choose the rooms that I live in with care.
A E A
The windows are small and the walls almost bare.
E A
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer.
E A
I listen all night for your step on the stair.
D A D A
But I know from your eyes, And I know from your smile:
D A
That tonight will be fine, will be fine, will be fine,
E E7 A
Will be fine for a while.
 
A E A
Oh sometimes I see her undressing for me.
A E A
She's the soft naked lady love meant her to be.
E A
And she's moving her body so brave and so free.
E A
If I've got to remember that's a fine memory.
D A D A
But I know from your eyes, And I know from your smile:
D A
That tonight will be fine, will be fine, will be fine,
E E7 A
Will be fine for a while.
