Poem by W.B. Yeats, great poet



Tuning: 

CAPO on FIRST 1st Fret

Verse


C5                       D5
  If I make the lashes dark
F5               Ab5   G5
  and the eyes more bright
C5                     D5
  and the lips more scarlet
    F5         G5
or ask if all be right


Chorus

A5                    E5
   From mirror after mirror,
F5     G5              C5
  no vanity's displayed:
E5                      A5     F5
   I'm looking for the face I had
C5             G5         A5
  before the world was made.
E5                      A5     F5
   I'm looking for the face I had
C5             G5         C5
  before the world was made.

Verse

C5                        D5
  What if I look upon a man
     F5            Ab5     G5
as though on my beloved,
C5                        D5
  and my blood be cold while
F5                 G5
  and my heart unmoved?


Chorus

A5                          E5
   Why should he think me cruel
F5         G5         C5
  or that he is betrayed?
E5                         A5        F5
   I'd have him love the thing that was
C5             G5         A5
  before the world was made
E5                         A5        F5
   I'd have him love the thing that was
C5             G5         C5
  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
