Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, on volumes of [Fm] forgotten lore.
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, [G] someone rapping at my chamber door.
[Cm] "'Tis some visitor," I muttered, tapping at my chamber door,
"'Only this, [D] and nothing [Fm] more.'
Open here I flung the shatter, when with many a [G] flatter, in stepped a raven of yore.
[Cm] Not the least obeisance, matey, not a minute stopped or stayed he, but perched above my [Fm] chamber door.
Be that word a sign of parting, bird or fiend, I shrieked [G] upstarting, get back to the Plutonian shore.
Well, leave [Cm] no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken.
Quit the bust above [Fm] my door.
And take thy beak from out my heart, take thy form from off my door.
[G] Quote the raven, "'Nevermore, [F] nevermore, [G] nevermore.'
And [Cm] the raven, never [Cm] flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting, on the bust of Pallas above [Fm] my door.
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon that is dreaming, [G] and the lamplight over him streaming on the floor.
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor shall be lifted nevermore.
Nevermore, [Fm]
[G] nevermore, [B]
[Cm] nevermore.
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, [G] someone rapping at my chamber door.
