As recorded by Norah Jones (From the 2022 Album HERE IT IS: A TRIBUTE TO LEONARD COHEN) [Intro] Gm [Verse 1]
Gm
Steer your way past the ruins of the altar and the mall

           Cm
Steer your way through the fables of creation and the fall

           Gm
Steer your way past the palaces that rise above the rot

     D                            Ebmaj7  F
Year by year, month by month, day by day

        Gm
Thought by thought
[Verse 2]
Gm
Steer your heart past the truth you believed in yesterday

        Cm
Such as fundamental goodness and the wisdom of the way

           Gm
Steer your heart, precious heart, past the women whom you bought

     D                               Ebmaj7  F
Year by year, month by month, day by day

        Gm
Thought by thought
[Verse 3]
Gm
Steer your way through the pain that is far more real than you

     Cm
That smashed the cosmic model, that blinded every view

           Gm
And please don't make me go there, though there be a God or not

     D7                              Ebmaj7  F
Year by year, month by month, day by day

        Gm
Thought by thought
[Chorus]
     Eb
They whisper still, the ancient stones

                Bb
The blunted mountains weep

      Eb
As he died to make men holy

                   Bb
Let us die to make things cheap

    F                            Eb
And say the mea culpa, which you probably forgot

     D7                           Eb     F
Year by year, month by month, day by day

        Gm
Thought by thought
[Verse 4]
Gm
Steer your way, o my heart, though I have no right to ask

       Cm
To the one who was never, never equal to the task

    Gm
Who knows he's been convicted, who knows he will be shot

     D                            Ebmaj7  F
Year by year, month by month, day by day

        Gm
Thought by thought
[Chorus]
     Eb
They whisper still, the injured stones

                Bb
The blunted mountains weep

      Eb
As he died to make men holy

                   Bb
Let us die to make things cheap

    F                             Eb
And say your mea culpa, which you gradually forgot

     D                            Eb     F
Year by year, month by month, day by day

        Gm
Thought by thought
[Outro]
      Eb            F
Month by month, day by day

        Gm
Thought by thought

      Eb            F
Month by month, day by day

        Gm
Thought by thought
Gm
