Lyrics

If you want a (Em)lov er,

I’ll do an y thing you (D)ask me to.

(CN.C.)And if you want an (Em)oth er kind of love,

I’ll wear a (D)mask for you.

(CN.C.)If you want a (Bm)part ner, take my hand or if you want to (G)strike me down in (Bm)an ger, here I (A)stand.

I’m your (Bm)man.

(CN.C.)If you want a (Em)box er, I will step in to the (D)ring for you.

(CN.C.)And if you want a (Em)doc tor, I’ll ex am ine ev ’ry (D)inch of you.

(CN.C.)If you want a (Bm)driv er, climb in side.

Or if you want to (G)take me for a ride,

(Bm)you (A)know you can.

(CN.C.)I’m your (Bm)man.

Ah, the (D)moon’s so bright, the (G)chain’s too tight, the (A)beast won’t go to sleep.

I’ve been (F#m)run ning through these pro mi ses to you that I (Bm)made and I could not keep.

Ah, but a (F#)man nev er got a wom an back, not by (Bm)beg ging on his knees.

Or I’d (G)crawl to you, ba by, and I’d (F#)fall at your feet, and I’d (G)howl at your beau ty like a (F#)dog in heat.

And I’d (G)claw at your heart, and I’d (E)tear at your sheet.

I’d say, please

I’m your (Bm)man.

And if you’ve got to (Em)sleep for a mo ment on the road, I will (D)steer for you.

And if you want to (Em)work the street a lone I’ll dis ap (D)pear for you.

(CN.C.)If you want a (Bm)fa ther for your child, or on ly want to (G)walk with me a while a cross the (A7)sand,

(A6)I’m your (G7)man.

About “I'm Your Man

Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "I'm Your Man"?
Yes — the score is rendered server-side from the publisher MusicXML using Verovio (the same engine RISM and OpenScore use). Standard piano notation, treble + bass staves, real chord symbols, key signature D. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
What key is "I'm Your Man" by Leonard Cohen played in?
I'm Your Man is arranged in the key of D on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.
What's the tempo (BPM) of "I'm Your Man"?
The arrangement plays at 102 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.
Is "I'm Your Man" easy to play on piano?
Yes — this is one of our beginner-friendly arrangements with simplified chords and color-coded notes.
Can I download sheet music for "I'm Your Man"?
Yes — registered users can download PDF sheet music, plus MIDI and MusicXML files for use in other notation software.
Who composed "I'm Your Man"?
"I'm Your Man" was originally performed by Leonard Cohen. The Super Simple Piano arrangement is simplified for beginner-to-intermediate players.

Try "A THOUSAND KISSES DEEP", "BIRD ON THE WIRE", "HALLELUJAH". All are in our player with color-coded notes; pick the one matching your level.
Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "I'm Your Man" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature D, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
Yes — slow the tempo from 102 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
Why can I click a note in the score?
Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
