B                D#m
a year is just a drop in time
           E                          B
it cannot touch the female form in my bed
               D#m
she is just a friend of mine
          E
in the dark, she knows
                    B
the touch of my hand


[Chorus]
E                             B
let the music play like you want it to
E                              B
let the sunshine light in your hair
E
let the moonlight play
              B
at your feet like a babe
    C#7             F#
and softly linger there


[Verse 2]
B                 D#m
her words profane, her mouth divine
E                          B
I tried to sympathize with both sides
B                      D#m
but I was caught, like a fleeting thought
E                          B
stuck inside Leonard Cohen's mind


[Chorus]
E                             B
let the music play like you want it to
E                              B
let the sunshine light in your hair
E
let the moonlight play
              B
at your feet like a babe
    C#             F#
and softly linger there

[Verse 3]
B                 D#m
we met on a beach in Greece
E                          B
and parted on a rusty Spanish stair
B                 D#m
two birds in the distance fly
E                          B
they land and they settle down somewhere


[Chorus]
E                             B
let the music play like you want it to
E                              B
let the sunshine light in your hair
E
let the moonlight play
              B
at your feet like a babe
    C#             F#
and softly linger there


[Verse 4]
B                D#m
a year is just a drop in time
           E                          B
it cannot touch the female form in my bed
               D#m
she is just a friend of mine
          E
in the dark, she knows
                    B
the touch of my hand


[Chorus]
E                             B
let the music play like you want it to
E                              B
tet the sunshine light in your hair
E
let the moonlight play
              B
at your feet like a babe
    C#             F#
and softly linger there


[Chorus]
E                             B
let the music play like you want it to
E                              B
let the sunshine light in your hair
E
let the moonlight play
              B
at your feet like a babe
    C#             F#
and softly linger there
