Everybody Knows Uke tab by Leonard Cohen

Dm
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
          Bb
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
          Dm
Everybody knows the war is over
          Bb
Everybody knows that the good guys lost
          Gm                  A
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
              C                  Dm
The poor stay poor the rich get rich
              Eb        A              Dm
That's how it goes.    Everybody knows
 
          Dm
Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
          Bb
Everybody knows that the captain lied
          Dm
Everybody got this broken feeling
          Bb
Like their father or their dog just died
          Gm                  A
Everybody talking to their pockets
          C              Dm
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
                Eb    A               Dm
And a long stem rose.   Everybody knows
 
          Dm
Everybody knows that you love me, baby
          Bb
Everybody knows that you really do
          Dm
Everybody knows that you've been faithful
          Bb
Give or take a night or two
          Gm                     A
Everybody knows you've been discrete    
                        C                            Dm
But there were so many  people you just had to  meet
             Eb        A                      Dm
Without your clothes.   And everybody knows
 
          F                C

              Dm
And everybody knows that it's now or never
          Bb
Everybody knows that's me or you
              Dm
And everybody knows that you live forever
            Bb
When you've done a little line or two
          Gm                A
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
          C                   Dm
Old black Joe's still picking cotton
                    Eb      A                      Dm
For your ribbon and bows.    And everybody knows
 
          Dm
Everybody knows the plague is coming
          Bb
Everybody knows that it's moving fast
          Dm
Everybody knows that your naked man and woman
          Bb
Are just a shining artifact of the past
          Gm                 A
Everybody knows the scene is dead
                       C             Dm
But there's gonna be a meter on your bed
                 Eb      A                      Dm
Which will disclose.      What everybody knows

From the bloody cross on top of Calvary
        Bb
To the  beach of Malibu
          Gm                   A
Everybody knows it's coming apart
              C                      Dm
Take one last look at this sacred heart
          Eb          A                  Dm
before it blows.       And everybody knows
