D     C

{Pre Chorus]

G       D         Em
 Ae fond kiss, and then we sever
C                 G
 Ae farewell, and then forever
C                         Em
 Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll 
pledge thee,
G                 D              
 Warring sighs and groans I'll 
   G      D     C
wage thee.


[Verse 1]

G            D      Em
 Who shall say that Fortune grieves 
him,
C                    G
 While the star of hope she leaves 
him
C                 Em            Em7
 Me nae cheerful twinkle lights me,
         G      D             G
 Dark despair around benights me.


[Verse 2]

            D        Em
I'll ne'er blame my partial fancy:
Continues after the ad
C                       G
 For nothing could resist my Nancy
C                Em7            Em
 But to see her was to love her
G                  C D        G
 Love but her, and love for ever.

   We had ne'er been broken-hearted.
