My cover of One of Us Cannot Be Wrong by Leonard Cohen for Open Mic Week 41
Hello Steemians. My voice is cracking and my guitar is covered in dust. What more perfect time to record a Leonard Cohen cover for you? Lyrics and chords below.

### One of Us Cannot Be Wrong
#### by Leonard Cohen
(A                   Bm     D                      A)
I lit a thin green candle to make you jealous of me
                                    ( Bm           D                       E)
But the room just filled up with mosquitos, they heard that my body was free
     (F#m                   C#m                        D                      A)
Then I took the dust of a long sleepless night and I put it in your little shoe
      (Bm                   G                           Bm           A               G     A)
And then I confess that I tortured the dress that you wore for the world to look through

I showed my heart to the doctor, he said I just have to quit
Then he wrote himself a prescription and your name was mentioned in it
Then he locked himself in a library shelf with the details of our honeymoon
And I hear from the nurse that he's gotten much worse and his practice is all in a ruin

I heard of a saint who had loved you, so I studied all night in his school
He taught that the duty of lovers is to tarnish the golden rule
And just when I was sure that his teachings were pure he drowned himself in the pool
His body is gone but back here on the lawn his spirit continues to drool

An Eskimo showed me a movie he'd recently taken of you
The poor man could hardly stop shivering, his lips and his fingers were blue
I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes and I guess he just never got warm
But you stand there so nice, in your blizzard of ice, oh please let me come into the storm

La, la ,la ,la...
***
*Thanks for listening. I'd love this video to get to a wider audience so please consider giving it a resteem.*

Such a great song, I love how the album ends on it. Good choice.. I think it would play much nicer on a classical guitar though, as it's quite a gentle and warm song! Also have you considered doing bar chords when the change comes in halfway through each verse? You have to slide all the way up to 9th fret and slowly move back down with each chord but it's so worth it!... I don't mean to teach your grandmother how to suck eggs though..! Haha :)
