HEY THAT'S NO WAY TO SAY GOODBYE
Songs "H"

 HEY, THAT'S NO WAY TO SAY GOODBYE

 

Leonard Cohen

 

  

[A] I loved you in the morning our kisses deep and warm

[F#m] Your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm

Yes, [D] many loved before us I know that we are not new

In [A] city and in forest they smiled like me and you

But [F#m] now it's come to distances and both of us must try

[D] Your eyes are soft with sorrow

[E] Hey, that's no way to say good-[A]-bye [E]

 

I'm not [A] looking for another as I wander in my time

[F#m] Walk me to the corner our steps will always rhyme

You [D] know my love goes with you as your love stays with me

It's [A] just the way it changes like the shoreline and the sea

[F#m] But let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie

[D] Your eyes are soft with sorrow

[E] Hey, that's no way to say good-[A]-bye [E]

 

[A] I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm

Your [F#m] hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm

Yes, [D] many loved before us, I know that we are not new

In [A] city and in forest they smiled like me and you

But [F#m] let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie

[D] Your eyes are soft with sorrow

[E] Hey, that's no way to say good-[A]-bye [E]
