[Eb]
A woman's face [Gm] with nature's own hand painted
[Cm]
Hast thou the master, [Gm] mistress of my passion?
[Fm]
A woman's [Eb] gentle heart but not acquainted
[Ab] With shifting changes [Bb]
is false woman's fashion
[Eb] An eye more bright [Gm] than theirs, less false in ruling
[Cm]
Gilding the object [Gm]
whereupon it gazes
[Fm]
A man in hue [Eb] while using his controlling
[Ab] Which steals men's eyes [Bb] and women's souls amazing
[Eb]
And for a woman, [G] were thou first created
[C]
Till nature as [B] she wrought thee feathered hoarding
[Eb] And by addition [G] may you be defeated
[C]
By adding one thing [B] to my purpose
[Bb] Nothing
[Eb] but sin she pricked thee [Gm] out for woman
[Cm]
Mine be thy love, [Gm] thy love's use, their treasure
[Bb] [Eb] [Bb]
