Anthem
Leonard Cohen / Leonard Cohen: The Future (1992)
| Em | D | | G |
| | | The birds they | sang - At the break of day. |
| D | G | G7 |
| Start | again - I heard them | say. | |
| B7 | Em |
| Don't | dwell - On what has | passed away, |
| D | Dsus4 | D5 | D7 | D |
| Or what is | yet to | be. | | | |
| The wars, - They will be fought again. | |
| The holy dove - She will be caught again. | |
| Bought and sold, And bought again; | |
| D | C | F | C |
| Ring the | bells that | still can | ring. |
| F | C |
| Forget your | perfect offe | ring. |
| G | F | C |
| There is a | crack, a | crack, in | everything; |
| Am | D | Dsus4 | D | Em | D |
| That's how the | light gets in. | | | | | |
| We asked for signs - The signs were sent. | |
| The birth betrayed - The marriage spent. | |
| Yeah, the widowhood - Of every government: | |
| I can't run no more - With that lawless crowd, | |
| While the killers in high places - Say their prayers out loud. | |
| But they've summed up, they've summed up - A big thundercloud, | |
| You can add up the parts, But you won't have the sum. | |
| You can strike up the march, There is no drum. | |
| Every heart, every heart - To love will come | |
| That's how the light gets in, That's how... | |
