Standard (EADGBE)

 I remember how we met

 but your name I forget

 like the door that I have kept unopened

 I remember it was wet

 and the swelt and the sweat

 and the shelter of the bed we we're clothed in

 You were stroking me like a pet

 but you didn’t own me yet

 and the tape in the cassette deck was choking

 Spat out a broken hallelujah

 But I’ve seen the way the earth

 throws its aces with a curve

 You were waiting for the words

 to come to yer.

 Just to say that you prefer to be lonely

 to be cursed

 and to do the very worst you can do.

 Yeah I remember you like a verse

 that I didn’t want to learn

 I just looked into your eyes

 and I knew yer.

 Now the thought of you is burnt

 on my body from the first time you did rewind that line from Hallelujah.

The original Leonard Cohen version.

Well I wish that I never met you that day

 You said I have a room and music to play

I have a room let me show you the way

I wish that I’d never come

But now that I have, I would do it again

 I would forget like I’d piss on a grave

 I would forget that I’d piss on a grave

 and the words as they came to my tongue were hallelujah. Hallelujah!

 And the sky was so much bluer

 Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

 And the world was so much newer.

 You said I have a room

 at the top of the stairs

I have a room with a view

I know we all have a cross that we bear

 and I’d like to show it to you.

 And you left me in the light

 and you met me in the light

 and we only had a night between the two.

 You were waiting for the worst

 You were listening for a curse

 but the only thing I heard was hallelujah.

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

 And the sky was so much bluer

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

 And the world was so much newer.

 you said I have a room

 at the top of the stairs.

I have a room with a view.

I know we all have a cross that we bear

and I’d like to give it to you.

And I won’t forget how the sky was set

 I said I have a place to go back to.

La La La I will have you yet

 I will carry you there if I have to.

 No I won’t forget no I won’t.

 No I won’t forget no I won’t

 No I won’t forget no I won’t

 No I won’t forget no.

Woah Woah First Love

Enjoy!
