Verse 1
(B flat major) (Gsus4) (Csus4) (C major) (B flat major)
(Csus4) (A minor)
Last (C major) night in restless sleep I lay
Beneath (Csus4) the wandering moon (C major)
Now I'm shook from slumber
by a mis (Csus4) priced dawn's
grey (C major) gloom (Csus4)
(C major) Where once roses blossomed,
love (Csus4) in idleness (C major) grows free (Csus4)
An (C major) d a canker takes the (B flat major) sy camore,
(Csus4) the oak, (C major) and lovel -tree (A minor)
(F minor) Where his (C major) eyes shone bright as lodestars,
I fol (F major) lowed through (C major) the dark
Company of that exiled man
with (Csus4) sticks upon his (C major) back (Csus4)
(C major) Down the (Csus4) crooked valley
(C major) where the (Csus4) sisters (C major) three do (Csus4) sport
And the (C major) oozle cock cries (B flat major) herald
In (Csus4) the king of (C major) shadows'
(A minor) court
(C major) Where his serpent's (Gsus4) tongue enchanting
In (C major) whispers (Csus4) spoke me fair (C major)
(Csus4) Now, (C major) from dulcet dreaming,
(Csus4) here sounds discord and des (C major) pair (Csus4)
(C major) Soft love turned black adamant,
while (Csus4) the nightingale did (F major) sing
(C major) And his words were naught but
(B flat major) moonshine
(Csus4) In this (F major) middle sum (C major) mer's (A minor) spring
(Gsus4) In these (C major) thorned
and twisted (Gsus4) bri ars
No (Csus4) solace (Gsus4) can I find (C major)
(Gsus4) As (Csus4) though in dark (C major) Acheron,
(Csus4) my hopes roll but drown (C major) (Csus4)
Bind (C major) my heart with cobwebs,
as (Csus4) sweet tones turn to (C major) a crow
(Csus4) Is our (C major) love as though from
knot (B flat major) grass weaned
(Csus4) Or (F major) froze of (C major) winter (A minor) snow?
For last (C major) night in restless sleep I lay
Beneath the (Csus4) wan dering (C major) moon
(Csus4) Now (C major) I'm shook from slumber
in (Csus4) a mispriced dawn's
grey (C major) gloom (Csus4)
(C major) Where once roses blossomed,
love (Csus4) in idleness (C major) grows (Csus4) free
And a canker (C major) takes the (B flat major) sick and warm
The (Csus4) (F major) oak (C major) an d laurel (A minor) tree
