  Leonard Cohen: The Partisan (La Complainte du Partisan)

                 (French text: Bernard, Music: Anna Marly,

                  English text: Hy Saret)

                 from the CD's "Songs from a room", "Greatest Hits" and

                 "Heart Housed in a Thorn Bush" (Live at Montreux, 1984)

  

  

  the pattern I play I've learned from a friend (erwin). Its easier to play, 

  but may be there is a certain loss of quality.

  

   erwins pattern

  The pattern is played two times per bar (indicated by / in first verse).

  In the first and second line of every verse there are three chords per bar

  and i play the pattern C* and E*.
