[G]
On Raglan Road on an [C] August day
[G] I saw [D] her, [G] heard the news
[C] That her dark hair [G] would weave a snare
That I might [D] one day rue
[C] I saw the [G] danger, yet I walked
Along the [D] enchanted way
And I said, let grief [C] be a fallen leaf
At [C] the [D] dawning of [G] the day
On Grattan Street [E] in [C] November
Early [G] trips [D] lightly [A] along the [G] ledge
[C] Of the deep ravine [G] where can be seen
A true worth of [D] passion's pledge
[C] The queen of [D] hearts still making tarts
[G] And I not making hay
I love too much, by [Em]
such, [G] by [C]
such
His [Em] [D] happiness thrown [G] away
I
[C]
[G] [D]
[G]
gave her the gift of [C] the mind
[Em] I gave her [D] the [G] secret sign
[C] That's known to the artist [G] who has seen
The true gods of sound [D] and stone
[C] And word and tint [G] I did not stint
I gave her [D] poems to say
With her own name there [G] and her [B] long [C] dark hair
[G] Like [D] clouds or [G] fields of May
On a quiet street where the old [C] folks meet
[G] I [Em] see [D] her [G] walking now
[C] Away from me [G] so hurriedly
My reason [D] must allow
[C] That I had wooed [G] not as I should
A creature [D] made of clay
When the angel [G] wooed the clay
[C] He'd lose his [D] wings at the dawn [G] of day
