Capo on 4, standard tuning

Em
Em                    C        G
Farewell to sweet and seasick suffering
    Em                 D
Goodbye all hollow and brave new worlds

           Em           C        G
Say Oh well to green and yellow melancholy

       Em               D           Em
And Oh my to sweet and strange new words

God damn, what damage done!

     C      G              Em
What wicked wanting have I felt

                         D
My nights have stretched constant without flame

  Em                                 C 
I have been quick to draw and shoot and

       G                   Em
Shoot again but never have I made my mark

        D                              G
Until my sweetheart came and said:

                   Am       C        
Farewell, sweet and seasick suffering

    Em                 D 
Goodbye all hollow and brave new worlds

   G              Am      C
Oh well, green and yellow melancholy 
    Em                D            Em         
And Oh my to sweet and strange new words

     Em      Am           C
Say, fair boy, are you so sure?

Em                   Am       D
Have you no questions for the world?

         Em    Am   C
Are your nights so cloudless?

         Em    Am D
Are your skies so clear?

    Am    G Am G           D
Say, fair boy, have you no fear?

    Am G Am G   D        Em
No fear,    no fear
Em                         C
Be still my quake and shudder

            G 
My hopeless hapless hero

    Em                   D
Why talk of hunger and of luckless love

   Em     
Be quick now before the light of day

  C         G       Em                   D         
Has left us lonely, consider this, consider saying: why not say,

G           Am             C      
Farewell sweet and seasick suffering

    Em                 D 
Goodbye all hollow and brave new worlds

   G              Am      C
Say Oh well to green and yellow melancholy

    Em                D             
And Oh my to sweet and strange new?. one more time;
G           Am             C      
Farewell sweet and seasick suffering

        Em             D 
Goodbye all hollow and brave new worlds

   G              Am      C
Say Oh well to green and yellow melancholy

    Em                D            Em  
And Oh my to sweet and strange new words
    Em                D            G
And Oh my to sweet and strange new words
