Poppaea Chords

(ver. 1)
Theatre Of Tragedy
Capo at 2
I started with capo at 2 but the standard tuning could be easier to play if you don't like Gm but then you have 
to change the intro part yourself (sorry!!). I like the sound using capo at 2 more.

Gm                  Dm       A A7  x6


[Verse]
Dm                  Gm               A7
Dream of a funeral, blest temptress - behest me!
Dm                       Gm               A7
A funeral thou'lt hark, swarth murderess - the Devil,
Dm                          Gm     A7       
Thine feral grith with me, Poppaea, be Hell's hap
Dm                            Gm      A7
Waylaid the beldame bawd, the niggard: Laughing tragedy.


[Chorus]
Gm                   Dm        A A7
And the wench doth bawdness to blow,
Gm
Stay my adamant -
Dm         A A7          Gm                Dm           A A7  
Suffer me to transfix .. to transfix thee: to transfix thee:
Gm                    
Let me dawt thine twain -
     Dm       A  
And, twine 'hem apart.

[Verse]
Dm                    Gm        A7
Of marrow, do na mell; I am Morelle -
Dm                    Gm       A7
The bosom'd Titivil; travail me; fain,
Dm                       Gm           A7
Subdue me with thine lote in oneness - make haste yet,'
Dm                     Gm        A7
Displode me in a font - Poppaea, do what thou wilt.

And the wench doth bawdness to blow,
