_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ [Cm] _
toothed to [D] thin my _ soul.
[Fm] _
_ _ [F] Toothed, sounded, _ [Gbm] _ _
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Db] _
_ scorned me, and I [Ab] remained _ beside my lair.
_ _ _ [Db] _
_ Virtue had reined [Ab]
on me _ until [E] I made a vow of love,
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dbm] _ Grant [G] _ _ [Gb] _ Duke, _ _ [Bm] our other, _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ but was not [D] to be,
_ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ [Bbm]
Flash necessity brought me [Am] to this _ _ [E] gilded _ [Abm] _ _ [G] cage. _ _ _
_ [Cm] _ Born to [D] hunger, they _ _ [A] _ [D] _ [Fm] fear I now, [A] and, _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _
singing, no [Ab] man's _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ song.
[Dm] But yet, of [C] course, I'd rather like [G] to revel.
[C] _ [G] I have no [C] strong objection [G] to die.
[C] _ [B] My [E] poor, precious expense, and never will [Db] _ _ [Fm] [Eb] open her cup.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _
_ _ [C] _ _ [Cm] _ _ _
Pearls and [Ab] ruby rings, _ how can [Gbm] worthly things take the place of [Bbm] honour?
_ Lost, [Am] can they compensate for my faultless state, [Abm] purchased as they were,
at such an [G] _ awful cost?
[C] _ [Cm]
And bracelets, _ _ _ _ [Ab] lavaliere, can they [Gbm] dry my tears?
Can they [Bbm] blind my eyes to shame?
Can the brightest [Bm] brood shield me [Ab] from repose?
[G] _ Can the purest diamond purify my _ [C] _ _ [Dm] soul?
And yet, [C] of course, these trinkets [G] are endearing.
[C] _ [G] I'm also [C] glad my sapphire [G] is so star.
[C] _ I'd rather [E] like a twenty [B]-carat earring.
