Chords for Van Morrison - Raglan Road - original

_ [Eb] _ _ On Raglan Road, on an autumn [Ab] day, _ I saw [Bb] her [Eb] first and knew,
_ _ _ That [Ab] her dark hair would [Gm] _ weave a [Cm] snare, _ That I might one day [C] rue.
[Fm] _ _ _ [Eb]
I [Ab] saw the danger, _ [Gm] I saw the fear, I saw the pain,
[Cm] Yet I walked [Gm] _ along [Cm] the enchanted [F] way, _ _ [Bb] _
And [Eb] I said, let [Gm] grief be [Cm] a falling [Ab] leaf,
At [Cm] the dawning [Bb] of _ [Eb] the day. _ _ _
On Grafton [Gm] Street, _ [Eb] in November, [Ab] _
We [Cm] tripped lightly [Bb] along [Eb] the ledge, _ _ _
Of [Ab] a deep, raving [Gm] well can be [Cm]
seen, [Gm] The worth [Cm] of _ passions [Bb] pledged. _ _
_ [Ab] The queen of hearts, [Gm] still making [Cm] tarts, And I, [Eb] and I, and [Cm] I, and I, not [Bb] making hay, _
But [Eb] I loved [Gm] too much, [Eb] by such, [Ab] And such, [Cm] is this happiness [Bb] _
thrown [Eb] away.
Alright. _ _

_ I gave her the gifts _ _ of the mind, [Ab] _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ A [Bb] secret [Eb] sign, _ _ _ _ [Ab] that's known to all [Gm] the artists.
_ [Cm] _ _
[Gm] The well-known true [Cm] good of [Bb] sound and timers, _ _ [Ab] With word and sense, [Gm] I never [Cm] distanced.
I [Gm] gave her strings [Cm] of, strings of [Bb] poems to sing, _ _ _ [Eb] With our own [Gm] names there,
[Eb] And her shining [Ab] black hair, Like [Cm] the clouds over [Bb] fields of [Eb] May.
_ And _ _ _ on a [Gm] quiet street, _ [Eb] _ where [Ab] all goes to sleep, _ [Cm] I see, [Bb] I see her [Eb] walking down, _ _ _
_ _ [Ab] Away from me, away from me, [Gm] so hurriedly, _ [Cm] _
And my [Gm] reason, my reason, [Cm] my reason, my [Bb] reason must allow, _ _
[Ab] That I have wood, _ [Gm] and I have a [Cm] shirt, [Gm] A creature _ [Cm] _
made [C] of clay.
_ [Bb] _
When [Eb] the angels _ [Gm] _
are [Eb] to play, He [Ab] looms his [Cm] wings, [Bb] at the dawn of the [Eb] day.
