Why be gloomy?

Cut thy nose off to spite thy face?

Listen to me

N.C.          D5  N.C.
A nose is hard... to replace

 D                 G       A
Skies could not bluer be

 G           A      D       A
Hearts in love truer be

I'd say for you or me

Life couldn't possibly bet-ter be

Life could not better be

 G      A     D      A
On a medieval spree

 D                 G       A
Knights full of chivalry

 A                  D     A     D
Villains full of vil-lai-ny


Verse:
 D               G        A
You'll see as you suspect

 G         A          D         A
Maidens fair, in silks bedecked

 D                G       A
Each pride and true effect

         A                   D    A     D
For the umpteenth time we re-sur-rect


Chorus:
 A        D
We did research

 A              D
Authenticity was a must

 C#              F#m
"Zooks!" Did we search!

N.C.                 D5  N.C.
And what did we find?... A lotta dust

Verse:
 D           G          A
After the dust had cleared

 G          A      D       A
Half the cast had a beard

     D                G         A
And I'm the one as you can see

     A                     D     A    D
For whom the bell tolls mer-ri-ly


Chorus:
 A          D
We asked Shakespeare

     A                     D
And Francis Bacon would they declare

 C#           F#m
Which one wrote this?

N.C.              D5   N.C.
And they both said... "get outta there!"

Verse 2:
 D                 G        A
Which brings us to the plot

 G         A      D         A
Plot we got, quite a lot

 D           G                C#
And as it unfolds you'll see

      G               F#m
What starts like a scary tale

 Em             D
Ends like a fairy tale

     Em                        G     A     D
And life couldn't possibly bet-ter be
