[E] On Raglan Road, on an [D] autumn day, I saw her [E] first, and I knew [D] that her dark hair would
[E] weave [A] a snare
[E] that I [C#m]
might one day [E] rue.
[D] I saw the danger,
[A] and I passed along [C#] the enchanted [E] way.
And I said, let grief be [A] a falling [D] leaf [B] at the dawning [D] [E]
of the day.

On Grafton Street, in [D] November, we drift lightly [A]
along the ledge [E] of [D] a deep ravine [B] where can
be [F#m]
seen [A] the words [E]
[Bm] of [F#m] [A] passion's [E] pledge.
The [D] queen of hearts [F#m] still [F#] baking [F#m]
tarts, a [A] knife [F#m] not making [E] hay.
Oh, [A] I love too much, and as [D] search by search [A] is happiness [E] thrown
[A] away.

[A] On a quiet street

[D] Away from me so [G#]
[F#m] hurriedly, [A] my reason [F#] [F#m] must [A] allow [E] that [D] I am loved, not [G#] as I [F#m] should a
[E] creature made of clay.
When [A] the angel loose the clay, [D] he'd loose his [E] wings at the dawn [A] of day.
With her own name there, and her own [D] dark hair, like [E] clouds over fields [D] of May.
