And you too fancied me | B |
Your heart hath too divided been | A |
A constant heart to be | B |
And like the gay and youthful knight | C |
Who loved and rode away | D |
Your fleeting fancy takes a flight | C |
With every fleeting day | D |

So let it be as you propose | E |
Tho' hard the struggle be | B |
'Tis fitter far that goodness knows | E |
Since we cannot agree | B |
Let's quarrel once for all my sweet | F |
Forget the past and then | A |
I'll kiss each pretty girl I meet | F |
While you'll flirt with the men | A |
