RAGLAN ROAD

G / / C / G C G /
On Raglan Rd of a autumn da ---y I saw her first and knew
C / G /
That her dark hair would weave a snare
/ / D /
That I would one day rue
C / G / / / D /
I saw the danger yet I passed along the enchanted way
G / / C / G C G /
And I said let grief be a fallen leaf at the dawning of the day

G / / C / G C G /
On Grafton St in Novembe ----r we tripped lightly along the ledge
C / G / / / D /
Of a deep ravine where can be seen the worth of passion play
C / G / / / D /
The Queen of hearts still making tarts and I not making hay
G / / C / G C G /
Oh I loved to much and by such by suc --- h is happiness thrown away

G / / C G C G /
I gave her gifts of the mind I gave her the seeret signs
C / G / / / D /
That's known to artists who have known-the true gods of sound and stone
C / G / / / D /
And her words and tint-without stint., I gave her poems to say
G / / C /
With her own name there and her own dark hair
G C G /
Like clouds over fields of May

G / / C/ G C G /
On a quiet street where old ghosts meet I see her walking now
C / G / / / D /
Away from me so hurriedly, my reason must allow
C / G / / / D /
That I had loved not as I should, a creature ,made of clay
G / / C /
When the angel woos the clay he'll lose
G C G /
His wings at the dawn of day
