Cohen:
GWell my friends are gone and my hair is grey

I ache in the places where I used to play
And I'mC crazy for love but I'm not coming on G 
I'm justD paying my rent everyCday
In the Tower of SoGng


I said to Hank Williams: How lonely does it get?

Hank Williams hasn't answered yet.
But I hCear him coughing all night lonGg
A hundDred floors above me C 
In the Tower of SoGng


I was born like this, I had no choice.

I was born with the gift of a golden voice.
And tweCnty-seven angels from the Great beyonGd
They tiDed me to this table right herCe
In the Tower of SonGg


So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll

I'm very sorry, baby, doesn't look like me at all
I'm stanCding by the window where the light is strGong
They don't lDet a woman kill you,C not
In the Tower of SoGng


Now you can say that I've grown bitter, but of this you may be sure:

The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor
And there's a mCighty judgment coming
But I may be wronGg
You see, you hDear these funny voiceCs
In the Tower of SonGg

Bono:
e I see you standing on the other Dside
e I don't know how the river Dgot so wide
I loCved you, baby, way back whenG 
e And all the bridges are burning that weD might have crossed
e But I feel so close to everythiDng that we lost
We'llC never have to lose it agaiDn

Cohen:
IG bid you farewell, I don't know when I'll be back

They're moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track
But You'll be hCearing from me, baby
Long after I'm Ggone
I'll be sDpeaking to you sweetly from a wCindow
In the Tower Gof Song
