D           Em         Asus4    
When, in disgrace with fortune 

         A
and men's eyes,

D       Em    A               D
I all alone beweep my outcast state

D                Em     Asus4   
And trouble deaf heaven with my 

         A
bootless cries

D          Em   A                
And look upon myself and curse my 

 D
fate,


D Em Asus4 A
Mmm...

D Em A D
Mmm...

D          Dm7     Em7/D        
Wishing me like to one more rich

      A7
 in hope,

D             Dm7       Em7/D   
Featured like him, like him with

               A
 friends possess'd,

D        Dm7        Em7/D       
Desiring this man's art and that

         A7
 man's scope,

D           Dm7    Em7/D         
With what I most enjoy contented 

  D
least;


D            Em         Asus4   
Yet in these thoughts myself 

        A
almost despising,

D       Em       A               
Haply I think on thee, and then my 

  D
state,

D           Em      Asus4        
Like to the lark at break of day 

  A
arising

D           Em           A      
From sullen earth, sings hymns 

           D
at heaven's gate;


D


    D   Em    D    Em         C 
For thy sweet love remember'd 

D   A     D
such wealth brings

Dmaj7  D7    Em       A      A7
That  then I scorn to change my

  D    G     D
 state with kings.
