Leonard Cohen – Store Room (Guitar)

             Am                                   Am
It's not the wind that keeps you up, it's not the snow

             C                  Em                     G
It's not the moon coming like a headlight through your window

             A                          C        D        A
It's not the thumbnail of a screen that scrapes away your dream

               F#m                               E
It's just this man taking what he needs from the store room

             Am                                    Am
It's not the news of burning towns that ruins your mind

       C                      Em                  G
Like a spool you turn and you turn but it won't unwind

         A                                  C         D      A
No these wars you did not start, they don't tear your sleep apart

            F#m                               E
It's just a man taking what he needs from the store room

             Am                               Am
And now this woman by your side, well, she's asleep

            C                                    Em                  G
And there's nothing you can give her and there's nothing you want to keep

          A                                   G         D      A
You don't even try to prove that the noise is neighbors making love

            F#m                               E
It's just a man taking what he needs from the store room

           Am                                       Am
Well go to sleep and change the locks when you wake up

           C                      Em                G
Share your toast, maybe spill some coffee from your cup

            Am                     A            G       D       A
Oh, there's nothing left to choose and there is so much more to lose

             F#m                               E
There's this man taking what he needs from the store room

             Am                                   Am
It's not the wind that keeps you up, it's not the snow

             C                  Em                     G
It's not the moon coming like a headlight through your window

             A                          C        D        A
It's not the thumbnail of a screen that scrapes away your dream

            F#m                               E
It's just a man taking what he needs from the store room

             Am                                    Am
It's not the news of burning towns that ruins your mind

       C                  Em               G
Like a spool you turn and turn but won't unwind

         A                                  C         D      A
No these wars you did not start, they don't tear your sleep apart

            F#m                               E
It's just a man taking what he needs from the store room

            Am                               Am
And now the woman by your side, well, she's awake

            C                                    Em                  G
But there's nothing you can give her and there's nothing you want to take

          A                                   C         D      A
You don't even try to prove that the noise is neighbors making love

            F#m                               E
It's just a man taking what he needs from the store room

         Am                                       Am
Or go to sleep and change the locks when you wake up

           C                           Em               G
Share your toast, maybe spill a little coffee from your cup

         A                                     C       D       A
He's got nothing left to choose and you've got so much more to lose

               F#m                               E
There's just a man taking what he needs from the store room

             Am
It's not the wind
