LEONARD COHEN - "a bunch of lonesome heros" Tablature
Official LEONARD COHEN Tablature & Sheet Music »
A BUNCH OF LONESOME HEROES- Leonard Cohen
A Bm
A bunch of lonesome and very quarrelsome heroes
E E7 A Asus4 A
Were smoking out along the open road
Bm
The night was very dark and thick between them
E E7 A Asus4 A
Each man beneath his ordinary load
CHORUS:
D Dmaj7 Bm D A Amaj7 F#m A
"I'd like to tell my story"
B E E7
Said one of them so young and bold
D Dmaj7 Bm D A Amaj7 F#m A
"I'd like to tell my story
F#m E Esus4 E E7
Before I turn into gold"
But no one really could hear him
The night so dark and thick and green
Well I guess that these heroes must always live there
Where you and I have only been
CHORUS #2:
Put out your cigarette, my love
You've been alone too long
And some of us are very hungry now
To hear what it is you've done that was so wrong
I sing this for the crickets
I sing this for the army
I sing this for your children
And for all who do not need me
CHORUS #3:
"I'd like to tell my story"
Said one of them so bold
"Oh yes, I'd like to tell my story
'Cos you know I feel I'm turning into gold"

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official LEONARD COHEN tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
