Sonnet
View chords used in this chart
E
Guido, I wish that you and Lapo and I
B
Could be taken by magic and placed in a boat
E
Where every rising swell
B
Would sweep us at our will across the sky
E
Then tempest never, or weather dire
B
Could ever make our blissful living cease
E
No, but abiding in a steady, blessed peace
B
Together in harmony
C#m A
And Lady Vanna and Lagia then
E
She who looms the thirty best
B
Would join us at the enchanter’s behest
E
And there we’d talk of love without an end
B
To make those ladies happy in the sky
E B
With Lapo enchanted too, and you and I
