In My Secret Life
Leonard Cohen
| Dm | C | F | |
| In My | Secret | Life... |
| F | |
| I saw you this morning. |
| Dm | |
| You were moving so | fast. |
| Bb | |
| Can't seem to | loosen my grip |
| C | |
| On the | past. |
| F | |
| And I | miss you so much. |
| Dm | |
| There's no one in | sight. |
| Bb | C | |
| And we're | still making | love |
| Dm | C | F | |
| In My | Secret | Life. |
| I smile when I'm angry. |
| I cheat and I lie. |
| I do what I have to do |
| To get by. |
| But I know what is wrong. |
| And I know what is right. |
| And I'd die for the truth |
| In My Secret Life. |
| Dm | C | Bb | |
| Hold | on, hold | on, my | brother. |
| Dm | C | Bb | |
| My | sister, | hold on | tight. |
| Dm | C | Bb | |
| I | finally | got my | orders. |
| C | Bb | |
| I'll be | marching through the | morning, |
| Bb | |
| Marching through the | night, |
| C | Bb | |
| Moving cross the | borders |
| C | |
| Of My | Secret Life. |
| Looked through the paper. |
| Makes you want to cry. |
| Nobody cares if the people |
| Live or die. |
| And the dealer wants you thinking |
| That it's either black or white. |
| Thank G-d it's not that simple |
| In My Secret Life. |
| I bite my lip. |
| I buy what I'm told: |
| From the latest hit, |
| To the wisdom of old. |
| But I'm always alone. |
| And my heart is like ice. |
| And it's crowded and cold |
| In My Secret Life. |
