On The Level Chords

(ver. 1)
Leonard Cohen
[Verse 1]
Eb
I knew that it was wrong
  Eb
I didn't have a doubt
      Eb                 Ab
I was dying to get back home
                       Eb
And you were starting out
                   Eb
I said I'd best be moving on
Eb
You said we have all day
                       Ab
You smiled at me like I was young
                  Eb
It took my breath away


[Bridge]
     Cm
Your crazy fragrance all around
     Eb
Your secrets all in view
   Cm
My lost, my lost was saying found
   Bb
My don't was saying do


[Chorus]
      Eb
Let's keep it on the level
       Eb
When I walked away from you
  Eb
I turned my back on the devil
 Eb                     Ab        Eb
Turned my back on the angel, too

                    Bb
They oughta give my heart a medal
    Bb
For letting go of you
       Ab
When I turned my back on the devil
Ab                    Eb
Turned my back on the angel, too


[Verse 2]
       Eb
Now I'm living in this temple
           Eb
Where they tell you what to do
                        Ab
I'm old and I've had to settle
                 Eb
On a different point of view
           Eb
I was fighting with temptation
           Eb
But I didn't want to win
   Eb               Ab
A man like me don't like to see
     Eb
Temptation caving in


[Bridge]
     Cm
Your crazy fragrance all around
     Eb
Your secrets all in view
   Cm
My lost, my lost was saying found
   Bb
My don't was saying do


[Chorus]
          Eb
Let's keep it on the level
       Eb
When I walked away from you
  Eb
I turned my back on the devil
 Eb                     Ab        Eb
Turned my back on the angel, too

                    Bb
They oughta give my heart a medal
    Bb
For letting go of you
       Ab
When I turned my back on the devil
Ab                    Eb
Turned my back on the angel, too

                    Bb
They oughta give my heart a medal
    Bb
For letting go of you
       Ab
When I turned my back on the devil
Ab                    Eb
Turned my back on the angel, too
