On the Level chords and lyrics - LEONARD COHEN

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]I knew that it was wrong
I didn't have a doubt
I was dying to get back [G]home

[Verse 2]
And you were starting out
[D]I said I best be moving on
You said, we have all day
You smiled at me [G]like I was young
It took my breath [D]away

[Verse 3]
Your [Bm]crazy fragrance, all around
[D]Your secrets all in view
My [Bm]lost, my lost was saying found
My [A]don't was saying do

[Verse 4]
Let's [D]keep it on the level
(keep it on the level)
When I walked away from you
(walked away from you)
I turned my back [G]on [D]the devil
(ooh-ooh-ooh)
Turned my back on [G]the angel too (ooh-ooh,
[D]ooh-ooh, angel too)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
[A]They ought to give

[Verse 5]
my heart a medal
For letting go of you (letting go of you)
When I [G]turned my back on
the devil (ooh)
Turned my back on the an[D]gel too

[Verse 6]
[D]
Now I'm living in this temple
Where they tell you what to do
I'm old and I've had to [G]settle
On a different point [D]of view

[Verse 7]
I was [D]fighting with temptation
But I didn't wanna win
A man like me don't like [G]to see
Tempta[D]tion caving in

[Verse 8]
Your [Bm]crazy fragrance,
all around (ooh-ooh)
[D]Your secrets all in view
My [Bm]lost, my lost was saying
found (ooh-ooh)
[A]My don't was saying do

[Verse 9]
Let's [D]keep it on the level (keep it
on the level)
When I walked away from you
(walked away from you)
I turned my back on the devil
(ooh-ooh-ooh)
Turned my back on the [G]angel too (ooh-ooh,
[D]ooh-ooh, angel too)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

[Verse 10]
They ought [A]to give my heart a medal
For letting go of you
(letting go of you)
When I [G]turned my back on
the devil (ooh)
Turned my [D]back on the angel
too (ooh-ooh-ooh)

[Verse 11]
They ought [A]to give my heart a medal
For letting go of you (letting go of you)
When I [G]turned my back on
the devil (ooh)
Turned my back on the angel [D]too

[Outro 1]
