'Alexandra Leaving' by Cohen Leonard - Guitar Tutorial

            F                    Dm
Suddenly the night has grown colder.
C             Bb   C    F
The god of love preparing to depart.
F                  Dm
Alexandra hoisted on his shoulder
Bb                    C       F
They slip between the sentries of the heart.
  Am7                  Bb
Upheld by the simplicities of pleasure
Gm                          C
They gain the light, they formlessly entwine
F                     Dm
And radiant beyond your widest measure
Bb                 C       F
They fall among the voices and the wine.
         Bb      C        Dm
It's not a trick, your senses all deceiving
       Bb                C
A fitful dream, the morning will exhaust

Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.

F                      Dm
Even though she sleeps upon your satin
C           Bb     C      F
Even though she wakes you with a kiss.
F                  Dm
Do not say the moment was imagined
C            Bb C       F
Do not stoop to strategies like this.
Am7                        Bb
As someone long prepared for this to happen
Gm                      C
Go firmly to the window. Drink it in.
       F           Dm
Exquisite music. Alexandra laughing.
Bb                  C   F
Your first commitments tangible again.
         Bb    C       Dm
And you who had the honor of her evening
         Bb              C
And by that honor had your own restored
     F Am7/E Dm C    Bb
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving

In full command of every plan you wrecked
F                    Dm
Do not choose a coward's explanation
C               Bb      C    F
That hides behind the cause and the effect.
         Bb   C         Dm
And you who were bewildered by a meaning
           Bb           C
Whose code was broken, crucifix uncrossed
