Leonard Cohen: I'm your man.

This song is from the CD "I'm your man" and can also be heard in an

italian film called "Caro diario" by the film-maker Nanni Moretti (1994).

This film won the price for the best direction in Cannes 1994.

I am interested in the words and chords of the song "Passing Through" and

in chords of the songs appeared on the albums "Various Positions" and

"Death of a Laidies Man" (e.g. Hallelujah, If it be your will, True love

leave no traces, ...). I would be thankful if you can help me.

Or I'd crawl to you, baby, and I'd fall at your feet,
       /G                         /F#m
and I'd howl at your beauty like a dog in heat.

And if you want to walk the street alone, I'll disappear for you.
             /Bm                /                   /G
If you want a father for your child, or only want to walk with me
 /               /A     /           /Bm     /
awhile across the sand,     I'm your man
