I'm Your Man

Leonard Cohen


Tom: D

  
Intro: Em  Bm  F#  Bm

               Em
If you want a lover
                     D
I'll do anything you ask me to
                  Em
And if you want another kind of love
             D
I'll wear a mask for you
               Bm
If you want a partner
         Bm
Take my hand
                     G
Or if you want to strike me down in anger
A
Here I stand
          Bm
I'm your man

If you want a boxer
I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor
I'll examine every inch of you
If you want a driver
Climb inside
Or if you want to take me for a ride
You know you can
I'm your man
         D
Ah, the moon's too bright
      G
The chain's too tight
     A                  D
The beast won't go to sleep
           F#m
I've been running through these promises to you
        Bm
That I made and I could not keep
          F#
Ah but a man never got a woman back
        Bm
Not by begging on his knees
         G
Or I'd crawl to you baby
         F#
And I'd fall at your feet
         G
And I'd howl at your beauty
        F#
Like a dog in heat
          G
And I'd claw at your heart
     E
I'd tear at your sheet
          A
I'd say please, please
          Bm
I'm your man

( Em  Bm )
( Em  D )
( Bm  G )
( F#  Bm )

And if you've got to sleep a moment on the road
I will steer for you
And if you want to work the street alone
I'll disappear for you
If you want a father
For your child
Or only want to walk with me a while
Across the sand
I'm your man

If you want a lover
I'll do anything that you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
I'll wear a mask for you...
