The Tyger

F                         G
Tyger Tyger, burning bright,
                        Am
In the forests of the night;
        Em             F
What immortal hand or eye,
F                       Am   G   F
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?


[Verse 1]
C               G               Am
In what distant deeps or skies.
           Em             F
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
          C              G
On what wings dare he aspire?
          G
What the hand, dare seize the fire?

C           G              Am
And what shoulder, & what art,
                  Em             F
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
               C                 G
And when thy heart began to beat,
                    G            C
What dread hand? & what dread feet?

C  G  Am
C  G  Am  Em


[Chorus]
F                         G
Tyger Tyger, burning bright,
                        Am
In the forests of the night;
        Em             F
What immortal hand or eye,
F                       Am   G   F
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?


[Verse 2]
C           G               Am
What the hammer? what the chain,
          Em                F
In what furnace was thy brain?
           C                 G
What the anvil? what dread grasp,
            G
Dare its deadly terrors clasp!

C          G                      Am
When the stars threw down their spears
              Em                F
And water'd heaven with their tears:
         C                G
Did he smile his work to see?
            G                   F
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?


[Chorus]
F                         G
Tyger Tyger, burning bright,
                        Am
In the forests of the night;
        Em             F
What immortal hand or eye,
F                       Am   G   F
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

F                         G
Tyger Tyger, burning bright,
                        Am
In the forests of the night;
        Em             F
What immortal hand or eye,
F                       Am   G   F
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
