I'm Your Man:

I Can't Forget

written by Leonard Cohen

    F#
I stumbled out of bed
       D#m
I got ready for the struggle
F#
I smoked a cigarette
     D#m               C#
And I tightened up my gut
   B         Bm       G#m
I said this can't be me
 A#          E    D#m
Must be my double
F#              B                F#
And I can't forget, (I can't forget)
            B
I can't forget, (I can't forget)
   D                  E               F# . . . |B . . . |
I can't forget but I don't remember what

F# . . . |B . . . |D . . . |E . . . |
F# . . . |C# . . . | . . . |

I'm burning up the road
I'm heading down to Phoenix
I got this old address
Of someone that I knew
It was high and fine and free
Ah, you should have seen us
And I can't forget, (I can't forget)
I can't forget, (I can't forget)
I can't forget but I don't remember who

          A#
I'll be there today
        D#m            A#
With a big bouquet of cactus
   E                 D#m     C#
I got this rig that runs on memories
        D#m              B
And I promise, cross my heart
               F#      D#m
They'll never catch us
    D                                  C#
But if they do, just tell them it was me

Yeah I loved you all my life
And that's how I want to end it
The summer's almost gone
The winter's tuning up
Yeah, the summer's gone
But a lot goes on forever
And I can't forget, (I can't forget)
I can't forget, (I can't forget)
I can't forget but I don't remember what
