I play a different accompaniment every third verse to add a bit of variety. It seemed a good idea at the time. It is a great song though. It comes from Cohen’s album “Songs of Love and Hate” which was released in 1971. Wikipedia makes this comment: “The lyrics are based on a poem he had previously written. The music is notoriously difficult to play on the guitar. Cohen went on record saying “Every guitarist has one chop, and I used mine on Avalanche”. He acknowledged in a 1992 interview with Paul Zollo that his “chop”, his unique pattern of playing, is behind many of his early songs.”

This is my entry for the play it forward ukulele video contest: ukulelereview.com A ukulele lesson by Ken Middleton Although this has a rather tongue-in-cheek title, it is a serious lesson. I believe that Leonard Cohen’s music really does sound good on the ukulele.
