Something Rotten - To Thine Own Self Cifras

(The Dm and Am in the verses should be played as barre chords on fret 5)
 
[Verse 1]
N.C.
Nick, just read it. I really think I'm onto something here.
N.C.
I am reading ... and where's the omelette?
N.C.
Uh, there is no omelette.
Dm                       Am           Dm Am           Dm    Am
What do you mean there's no omelette?    There has to be an Omelette.
Dm     Am     Dm        Am     Dm Am         Dm          Am    Dm
  It's called Omelette! Argghh...    Are you hearing yourself? What?
    Am        Dm          Am    Dm     Am      Dm          Am       Dm    Am
Nick, are you hearing yourself? Yes! I can't believe we're having a conversation
 Dm     Am         Dm        Am        Gm    Gm/F# Gm     A
About a story that has to be all about eggs! So?   Eggs?! Yes!
     F          F/E           F     F#
What is it with you and these eggs?
    G5                       A5
You just have to trust me, I know what I'm doing
   C5                           D5
I think that you're out of your mind
                     Bb
If you think that pursuing that is a good thing
                         F
Well, I do! Okay, well I don't!
 
[Break]
                   C5
Read him this part - it's beautiful
C5
Doesn't matter. He won't listen
C5
I should really take these before this turns ugly
C5
Just read him what you wrote
C5
What the hell are they talking about?
C5
You asked me to write something. Well, here it is!
 
[Chorus]

Sure as the day follows the night
F                        Cm
Sure as the sky turns to blue
G5   A5           G5   A5   G5 A5
This much I know, this much is true
G5  A5       F                    F7
A - bove all else in whatever you do
Bb           Eb   F  Dm  Am
To thine own self be true
 
[Verse 2]
       Dm            Dm         Am          Dm              Dm
That's it? It's beautiful! It's like - good line and good advice!
     Am      Dm   Am               Dm        Am      Dm             Dm     Am
Well I don't know.   I thought the whole breakfast theme was really strong.
Dm       Am         Dm      Am    Dm            Am    Dm    Am        Dm  Am
Everyone loves breakfast! Exactly!   But there's   no Danish, there's no ham,
        Dm      Am      Dm          Am         Dm C         Dm
There's no breakfast at all! You're completely ignoring the theme!
    Am   Dm           C     Dm       Am           Dm       C
I'm ignoring the "breakfast theme" because it's ridiculous!
Dm  Am        Dm          C     Dm
Oh!   Are you hearing yourself? Nick!
  Am            Dm          C     Dm
I said, are you hearing yourself? Yes!
  Am      Dm           C         Dm        Am
I can't believe you're trying to change direction cause
Dm       C          Dm  Am       Gm     Gm/F#       Gm    A
You've decided that my ideas are wrong! Please! I'm wrong
          F          F/E             F     F#
But this "true to yourself" thing is right?
       G5                   A5
That's not just a line it's what I believe
     C5                 D5
Then you are a fool and really naïve -
       Bb
If you think - it's as simple as that
        C                F
Well, I do! Okay, well I don't
 
[Break]
               C5                                                C5
 Arggh!                This is hopeless. I don't know how to get through to you!
(So what do we do ...?)                          (So what do we do ...?)
                                                C5
Nick - the fact that you think that Omelette is good?             It worries me!
                                    (So what do we do? What do we do? What do we do?)
C5                        Bb
Guys? Can you help me out here!?
                  C5               Bb                          Csus4 C
You really should listen, Nick. It just makes your heart wanna soar!
 
[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
         Dm          Dm           Am    Dm
You want some truth?   Here's the truth:
           Dm      Am       Dm                 Dm       Am    Dm
"Omelette" will be known as perhaps the single greatest play ever written!
Bb      Am    Bb     Am         C
How can you possibly know that? I just do!
 
[Break]
               C5
(So what do we do?) It will be talked about for generations to come
               C5
(So what do we do?) We need a hit, not some audience-repelling death-play
              C5
About your descent into madness! This descent into madness? - That's you! (Oh!)
(So what do we do? What do we do? What do we do?)
 
N.C.
Nick - I mean it. Whatever happened to the guy who inspired me to become a writer?
He finally has a great idea! Now, we open in a week. Are you gonna help me write Omelette
Or not? No. No? No - I can't. It doesn't feel right. And deep down I think it doesn't feel
right to you either.
 
D
 (So what do we do?) I'll tell you what we do ...
               D
(So what do we do?) We serve up what they're hungry for!
               D
(So what do we do?) OMELETTE - THE MUSICAL!
               E
(So what do we do?)

      F  N.C.             F
We're on our way to glory
      G N.C.                    G
We'll play for kings and queens
    G
And there and then they'll see
    G        E                                C
The end will justify the beans! (The end will justify the beans!)

Sure as the day follows the night

Surely we must see this through (Okay, if you say so)
C      F                   C      F  C F
Damned if I don't (Don't!) Damned if I do! (Do!)

Damn it, I don't have the luxury to
Bbsus4      Bb           Bbm        F
Hang all my hope on some simplistic trope
     Bbm                             Bm7 F
Like to thine own self               be  true
                  (To thine own self be  true)
F
Oh God, I hope what he's saying is true! (Please be true, please be true, please be true!)
