Leonard Cohen nasceu em Montreal, província de Quebec, Canadá, de uma família judia de origem polaca. A sua infância foi marcada pela morte de seu pai quando Cohen tinha apenas 9 anos, fato que seria determinante para o desenvolvimento de uma depressão que o acompanharia durante boa parte da vida. Aos 17 anos, ingressa na Universidade McGill e forma um trio de música country. Paralelamente, passa a escrever seus primeiros poemas, inspirado por autores como García Lorca.

CC/BAm Maybe I've been here before CC/BAm I know this room Ive walked this floor FGCG I used to live alone before I knew you CFG I've seen your flag on the marble arch AmF But Love is not a victory march GEAm It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah FAmFCGCG Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

CC/BAm Maybe there’s a God above CC/BAm But all I ever learned from love FGCG Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you CFG Its not the cry that you hear at night AmF It's not someone who's seen the light GEAm It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah FAmFCGCG Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
