When To Her Lute Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
When [C]to her [G]lute Corinna sings,
Her voice re[Em]vives [F#]the leaden [B]strings,
And doth in highest [Em]notes [B]appear,
[Em]As a[Bm]ny challenge did g[B]row clear.
But [G]when she [D]doth of [Em]mourning [Am]speak,
[B]In wit[Bm]h her sig[C]hs, her sighs, her[D] sighs,
[Em]The [B]strings do break,
[Em]The stri[B]ngs do break.
[Em]But [G]when she doth of mou[Em]rning [Am]spea[B]k,
In with her sighs, [C]her sighs, [D]her sighs,
[Bm]The [B]strings to break,
[Em]the [B]strings [E]to break[Em],
And as her [C]lute [G]doth live [D]or [G]die,
[Em]Led by h[G]er passion, [F#]so must I.[B]
For when of pleasure [Em]she d[B]oth [Em]sing,
My thought[D]s and [Bm]joy a sudden s[B]pring,
[Bm]But [G]if she dot[D]h of s[Em]orrow [Am]spea[B]k
In [Bm]from my heart, [C]my heart, [D]my [Bm]heart
[Em]The [B]strings to break,
[Em]the stri[B]ngs to break.[E]
[Em]But [G]if she d[D]oth of s[Em]or r[Am]ow s[B]peak,
In from my [Bm]heart, [C]my heart, [D]my heart,
[Em]The [B]strings to break,
[Em]The [B]strings to break.
