Poem by W.B. Yeats, great poet



Tuning: 

CAPO on FIRST 1st Fret

Verse


C                       D7
  If I make the lashes dark
F               Ab   G
  and the eyes more bright
C                     D7
  and the lips more scarlet
    F         G
or ask if all be right


Chorus

Am                    E7
   From mirror after mirror,
F     G              C
  no vanity's displayed:
E7                      Am     F
   I'm looking for the face I had
C             G         Am
  before the world was made.
E7                      Am     F
   I'm looking for the face I had
C             G         C
  before the world was made.

Verse

C                        D7
  What if I look upon a man
     F            Ab     G
as though on my beloved,
C                        D7
  and my blood be cold while
F                 G
  and my heart unmoved?


Chorus

Am                          E7
   Why should he think me cruel
F         G         C
  or that he is betrayed?
E7                         Am        F
   I'd have him love the thing that was
C             G         Am
  before the world was made
E7                         Am        F
   I'd have him love the thing that was
C             G         C
  before the world was made

Lyrics:

If I make the lashes dark
And the eyes more bright
And the lips more scarlet,
Or ask if all be right
From mirror after mirror,
No vanity's displayed:
I'm looking for the face I had
Before the world was made.

What if I look upon a man
As though on my beloved,
And my blood be cold the while
And my heart unmoved?
Why should he think me cruel
Or that he is betrayed?
I'd have him love the thing that was
Before the world was made
