WINTER LADY - Leonard Cohen

[Verse 1]
      
Traveling lady

      
   stay a whil

e
       
Until the nigh

   
t is over
        
I'm just a sta

     
tion on your w


ay
        
I know I am no

     
t your lover

[Chorus 1]
       
Well, I lived 

         
with a child o

f snow
       
When I was a s

 
oldier
       
And I fought e

      
very man for h

er
       
Until the nigh

           
ts grew colder

[Verse 2]
      
She used to we

      
ar her hair li

ke you
       
Except when sh

   
e was sleeping
        
And then she'd

     
 weave it on a


 loom
      
Of smoke and g

     
old and breath

ing

[Chorus 2]
       
And why are yo

         
u so quiet now
       
Standing there

 
 in the doorwa

y?
       
You chose your

      
 journey long 

before
       
You came upon 

           
this highway

[Verse 3]
      
Traveling lady

      
 stay a while
       
Until the nigh

   
t is over
        
I'm just a sta

     
tion on your w


ay
     
I know I am no

     
t your lover
