Leonard Cohen - The captain

Now the ^ACaptain called me ^Eto his bed He f^Dumbled for my h^Aand T^Dake these silver b^Aars, he said I'm gi^Eving you com^Amand. Com^Amand of what, there's ^A7no one here There's o^Dnly you and ^Ame All the r^Eest are dead or in retreat Or w^Dith the e^Anemy.

Complain, ^Acomplain, that's all^E you've done Ev^Der since we l^Aost If i^Dt's not the Crucifi^Axion Then i^Et's the Holoca^Aust. May C^Ahrist have mercy on yo^A7ur soul For mak^Ding such a j^Aoke Amid t^Ehese hearts that burn like coal And the fle^Dsh that rose like s^Amoke.

I k^Anow that you have su^Effered, lad But s^Duffer this awh^Aile Whatev^Der makes a soldier s^Aad Will m^Eake a killer sm^Aile. I'm l^Aeaving, Captain, I've got to ^A7go There's b^Dlood upon your h^Aand But t^Eell me, Captain, if you know Of a d^Decent place to st^Aand.

There ^Ais no decent place to st^Eand ^DIn a massa^Acre But ^Dif a woman take your h^Aand Then ^Ego and stand with h^Aer. I le^Aft a wife in Tenness^A7ee And a ^Dbaby in Saig^Aon I ris^Eked my life but not to hear Some c^Dountry-western so^Ang.

Ah, but ^Aif you cannot raise your lo^Eve To a ^Dvery high degr^Aee Then you're j^Dust the man I've been thinking ^Aof So c^Eome and stand with ^Ame. Your st^Aanding days are done, I cr^A7ied, You'll ^Drally me no mo^Are I d^Eon't even know what side We f^Dought on, or what f^Aor.

I'm o^An the side that's always l^Eost Agai^Dnst the side of Heav^Aen I'm ^Don the side of Snake-eyes tos^Ased Agai^Enst the side of Sev^Aen And I've ^Aread the Bill of Human Rig^A7hts And so^Dme of it was tr^Aue But t^Ehere wasn't any burden left So I'm l^Daying it on y^Aou.

Now the C^Aaptain he was d^Eying But the C^Daptain wasn't h^Aurt The s^Dilver bars were ^Ain my hand I pi^Enned them to my sh^Airt
