[D] On Raglan Road [G] of an autumn day [D] I saw her first and knew
That
[G] her dark [D] hair would weave a snare That I might one [A] day rue
I [Gm] saw the [D] danger and I passed along the [A] enchanted way
And I [D] said let grief be a fallen [G] leaf [D] At the
[A] dawning of [D] the day
On Grafton Street in [G] November
[D] We tripped lightly [G] along [D] the lair
[G] Of a deep ravine [D] where can be seen The worth of [A] passion's pledge
[G] The queen of hearts [D] still making tarts And I'm not [A] making hay
[D] Oh I loved too much and by [G] such, by [D] such Is happiness [G] blown [D] away
I gave her gifts of the mind [G] I gave [D]
her the [G] secret [D] sign
That [G] known to the [D] artists who have known The true gods of sound [A] and stone
And [G] word and tint [D] without stint I gave her poems to [A] say
[D] With her old name there and her own [G] dark hair [D] Like clouds over [G] fields [D] of May
On a quiet street [A] [D] where old [G] ghosts [D] meet I see [Bm] her walking [A] [D] now
[G] Away from me [D] so hurriedly My reason [A] must allow
[G] That I had loved [D] not as I should A creature made [A] of clay
When [D] the angel woos the clay [G] He'd lose [D] his wings at [G] the dawn [A] [D] of day
That
[G] her dark [D] hair would weave a snare That I might one [A] day rue
I [Gm] saw the [D] danger and I passed along the [A] enchanted way
And I [D] said let grief be a fallen [G] leaf [D] At the
[A] dawning of [D] the day
On Grafton Street in [G] November
[D] We tripped lightly [G] along [D] the lair
[G] Of a deep ravine [D] where can be seen The worth of [A] passion's pledge
[G] The queen of hearts [D] still making tarts And I'm not [A] making hay
[D] Oh I loved too much and by [G] such, by [D] such Is happiness [G] blown [D] away
I gave her gifts of the mind [G] I gave [D]
her the [G] secret [D] sign
That [G] known to the [D] artists who have known The true gods of sound [A] and stone
