Capo on 3rd fret.

*This is not how Leonard Cohen or anyone I've seen plays it, this is just my own
interpretation.  Same chords, just played slightly differently.  It matches the vocals 
spot on and you can still play along with the original recording*


I loved you in

 the morning, 

our kisses dee

p and warm,

your hair upon

 the pillow li

ke a sleepy go

lden storm,

yes, many love

d before us, I

 know that we 

are not new,

in city and in

 forest they s

miled like me 

and you,

but now it's c

ome to distanc

es and both of

 us must try,

your eyes are 

soft with sorr

ow,
           
Hey, that's no

             
 way to say go

     
odbye.


I'm not lookin

g for another 

as I wander in

 my time,

walk me to the

 corner, our s

teps will alwa

ys rhyme

you know my lo

ve goes with y

ou as your lov

e stays with m

e,

it's just the 

way it changes

, like the sho

reline and the

 sea,

but let's not 

talk of love o

r chains and t

hings we can't

 untie,

your eyes are 

soft with sorr

ow,
             
Hey, that's no

              
 way to say go

      
odbye.

This is how I fingerpick the different sections.

Normally, for the "Hey, that's now way to say goodbye" part, I simply keep the same
rhythm I've been playing for the rest of the song, strumming with my thumb on the down
beats, the top two strings of the off beats, alternating between the root (in this case, 
the A in the D chord) and another note in the chord (I usually play the D string).  If you'd
like, when he sings the B on "hey THAT'S now WAY to SAY" you can move your pointer 
finger off of the G string and change the bass to a B where I capitalized the words previously.
