On Raglan Road of an autumn [C] day,
[G] I saw [C] her first and [G] knew
That her dark hair [G] would weave [Em] a snare [G] That I might one [D] day rue.
[C] I saw the danger, [G] yet [Em] I walked [G] Along the [D] enchanted way
And [G] I said, let grief be a fallen [C] leaf At the [C] dawning of [G] the day.
On Grafton Street in November We [G] tripped lightly
[C] along [G] the ledge
[C] Of the deep ravine where can be [Em] seen [G] The work of [D] passion's pledge
Oh, [C] the queen of hearts [G] still making [Em] tarts [G]
And I not making [D]
hay.
Oh, I loved too much and by such, [C] By such [G] is happiness [C] thrown [G] away.
I gave her gifts of the mind, I gave [G] her [C] the secret [G] sign
[C] That's known to the artists who [Em] have The [G] true gods of sound and [D] stone
And
[C] word and tint, [G] I did not [Em] stint For [G] I gave her poems [D] to say
With [G] her own name there and her own [C] dark hair Like clouds over fields [G] of May.

A Quiet Street
A quiet street where old ghosts [C] meet [G] I see her walking now
Away from me so [Em] hurriedly [G] My reason must [D] allow
That [C] I had loved, [G] not as [Em] I should [G] A creature made of [D] clay
[G] When the angel woos the clay [C] He'd lose [G] his wings at [C] the dawn [G] of day
The angel woos the clay [C] He'd lose [G] his wings at the dawn of day
