Raglan Road

   G                 D      Esus2 
On raglan road on an autumn day i 
G      D          G
saw him first and knew
     Cadd9               G     
That his dark hair would weave a 
   Esus2     G       Esus2   D
snare that i might one day rue
  Cadd9             G      Esus2  
I saw the danger and yet i walked 
G         Esus2     D
along the enchanted way
      G                    D      
And i said "let grief be a falling
  Esus2      G   D          G
 leaf at the dawning of the day"

On grafton street in november we 
          G       D         G
tripped lightly along the ledge
    Cadd9              G      
Of a deep ravine where can be 
Esus2    G        Esus2    D
seen the worth of passions play

    Cadd9                 G      
The queen of hearts still making 
Esus2     G     Esus2  D
tarts and i not making hay
      G                 D        
But i loved too much by such and 
Esus2   G    D           G
such is happiness thrown away

[Verse 3]
                     D      Esus2  
I gave him the gifts of the mind i 
G        D          G
gave him the secret sign
       Cadd9            G  Esus2 
That's known to all the artists 
        G                  Esus2  
who have known true gods of sound 
   D
and time
     Cadd9           G         
With word and tint i never did 
Esus2   G              Esus2     
stint i gave him reams of poems to 
  D
say
     G                         
With his own name there and his 
 D           Esus2         G     
shiny black hair like the clouds 
      D         G
over fields of may

[Verse 4]
                        D          
On a quiet street where old ghosts 
Esus2  G       D       G
meet i see him walking now
Cadd9          G    Esus4    G  
Away from me so hurriedly my 
   Esus2 D
reason must allow
   Cadd9             G    Esus2   
That i had wooed not as i should a
 G    Esus2       D
 creature made of clay
         G              D          
When the angel woos the clay he'll 
Esus2    G            D          
lose his wings at the dawn of the 
 G
day
