Judy Collins - Blue Raincoat
CAPO: 3rd Fret
[Intro]
Am F Am
[Verse 1]
F
It's four in the morning, the end of December
Dm7 Em
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
Am F
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living
Dm7 Em
There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening
Am Bm Am Bm
I hear that you're building your little house in the desert
Am G Am G
You're living for nothing now, I hope you're keeping some kind of record
[Chorus]
C G
Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair
E7 Am
She said you gave it to her
Bm G
That night that you planned to go clear
F Em Am G
Did you ever go clear?
[Verse 2]
Am F
The last time we saw you, you looked so much older
Dm7 Em
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
Am F
You'd been to the station to meet every train
Dm7 Em
Then you came home without Lili Marlene
Am Bm Am Bm
And you treated my woman to a flake of your life
Am G Am G
And when she came home, she was nobody's wife
[Chorus]
C G
Yes, I see you there with the rose in your teeth
E7 Am
One more thin gypsy thief
Bm G
Well, I see Jane's awake
F Em Am G
She sends her regards
[Verse 3]
Am F
And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
Dm7 Em
What can I possibly say?
Am F
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
Dm7 Em
I'm glad that you stood in my way
Am Bm Am Bm
If you ever come by here, for Jane or for me
Am G Am G
Well, your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free
[Chorus]
C G
Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
E7 Am G
I thought it was there for good, so I never tried
C G
Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair
E7 Am
She said that you gave it to her
Bm Am G
That night that you meant to go clear
F Em
Sincerely, L Cohen
[Outro]
Am F Dm7 Em
La la la la la la la la la la
