When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,
D Em A D
I all alone beweep my outcast state
D Em Asus4 A
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries
D Em A D
And look upon myself and curse my fate,
D Em Asus4 A
Mmm...
D Em A D
Mmm...
D Am7 Em7 A7
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
D Am7 Em7 A
Featured like him, like him with friends possess'd,
D Am7 Em7 A7
Desiring this man's art and that man's scope,
D Am7 Em7 D
With what I most enjoy contented least;
D Em Asus4 A
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,
D Em A D
Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
D Em Asus4 A
Like to the lark at break of day arising
D Em A D
From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate;
D
D Em D Em C D A D
For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings
D D7 Em A A7 D G D
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.
