Biografía:
Leonard Cohen (21 Septiembre 1934 – 7 Noviembre 2016) nació en una familia judía de clase media de ascendencia polaca en Montreal y creció en Westmount. Su padre, Nathan Cohen, era propietario de una tienda de corte y confección y falleció cuando el joven poeta contaba nueve años. Según la tradición familiar, los Cohen descienden de los Kohanim. "Fui querido como un mesías", contó Cohen a Richard Golstein en 1967, "y se me decía que descendía de Aarón".

[Verses]
Am F
The door it opened slowly,
Am F
my father he came in,
G F E
I was nine years old.
Am F
And he stood so tall above me,
Am F
his blue eyes they were shining
G F E
and his voice was very cold.
C
He said, "I've had a vision
and you know I'm strong and holy,
D C B
I must do what I've been told."
F Bb
So he started up the mountain,
F Bb
I was running, he was walking,
F G A Am
and his axe was made of gold.
Am F
Well, the trees they got much smaller,
Am F
the lake a lady's mirror,
G F E
we stopped to drink some wine.
Am F
Then he threw the bottle over,
Am F
broke a minute later
G F E
and he put his hand on mine.
C
Thought I saw an eagle
but it might have been a vulture,
D C B
I never could decide.
F Bb
Then my father built an altar,
F Bb
he looked once behind his shoulder,
F G A Am
he knew I would not hide.
Am F
You who build the altars now
Am F
to sacrifice these children,
G F E
you must not do it anymore.
Am F
A scheme is not a vision
Am F
and you never have been tempted
G F E
by a demon or a god.
C
You who stand above them now,
your hatchets blunt and bloody,
D C B
you were not there before,
F Bb
when I lay upon a mountain
F Bb
and my father's hand was trembling
F G A Am
with the beauty of the word.
Am F
And if you call me brother now,
Am F
forgive me if I inquire,
G F E
"Just according to whose plan?"
Am F
When it all comes down to dust
Am F
I will kill you if I must,
G F E
I will help you if I can.
C
When it all comes down to dust
I will help you if I must,
D C B
I will kill you if I can.
F Bb
And mercy on our uniform,
F Bb
man of peace or man of war,
F G A Am
the peacock spreads his fan.
