Paper Thin Hotel - Leonard Cohen
*Note: the line beginning on Am can also be played with the descending
G#, G, and F# notes as the root note, which the bass does on the recored.
This is just how I prefer to play it on guitar.
[Intro]
F F6 Fmaj7
Gm C7 Gm7 C7
F F6 Fmaj7
Gm C7 Gm7 C7
[Verse]
F D7/F# Gm7 C7
The walls of this hotel are paper-thin
F D7/F# Gm7 C7
Last night I heard you making love to him
Am Am(maj7) Am7 Am6
The struggle mouth to mouth and limb to limb
Dm Dm(maj7) Dm7 G7
The grunt of unity when he came in
Fmaj7 (132211) Gm7
I stood there with my ear against the wall
Fmaj7 (132211) Gm7
I was not seized by jealousy at all
[Chorus]
F Gm7
In fact a burden lifted from my soul
C7 F F6
I heard that love was out of my control
Fmaj7 F6 Gm7
A heavy burden lifted from my soul
C7 F F6 Fmaj7 F6 Gm C7 Gm7 C7
I heard that love was out of my control
[Verse]
F D7/F# Gm7 C7
I listened to your kisses at the door
F D7/F# Gm7 C7
I never heard the world so clear before
Am Am(maj7) Am7 Am6
You ran your bath and you began to sing
Dm Dm(maj7) Dm7 G7
I felt so good I couldn't feel a thing
Fmaj7 (132211) Gm7
I stood there with my ear against the wall
Fmaj7 (132211) Gm7
I was not seized by jealousy at all
[Chorus]
F Gm7
In fact a burden lifted from my soul
C7 F F6
I heard that love was out of my control
Fmaj7 F6 Gm7
A heavy burden lifted from my soul
C7 F F6 Fmaj7 F6 Gm C7 Gm7 C7
I heard that love was out of my control
[Verse]
F D7/F# Gm7 C7
And I can't wait to tell you to your face
F D7/F# Gm7 C7
And I can't wait for you to take my place
Fmaj7 Gm7
You are The Naked Angel In My Heart
Fmaj7 Gm7
You are The Woman With Her Legs Apart
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Gm7
It's written on the walls of this hotel
C7 F F6 Fmaj7 F6 Gm C7 Gm7 C7
You go to heaven once you've been to hell
Fmaj7 Gm7
A heavy burden lifted from my soul
N.C. F F6 Fmaj7 F6 Gm C7 Gm7 C7
I heard that love was out of my control
[Outro]
F F6 Fmaj7 F6
Gm C7 Gm7 C7
