                         RAGLAN ROAD
                        CAPO 2nd FRET
 
  [INTRO]    C    G    C
 
       C     C             Am7   F        C        G          C
  On Raglan Road,  On an Autumn day,   I saw her first,  And knew
        F        F             C        Am7          C       Am7      G
  That her dark hair,  Would weave and snare,   That I might one day rue
     F        F       C     Am7         C          Am7     G
  I saw the danger,  Yet I walked,    Along the Enchanted Way
         C           C            Am7     F                C    G       C
  And I said,  Let grief,  Be a falling leaf,    At the dawning of the day
 
        C       C        Am7   F                  C      G         C
  On Grafton Street,  In November,  We tripped lightly along the ledge
        F     F            C      Am7          C        Am7      G
  Of a deep ravine, Where can be seen,   The worst of passions pledge
        F        F               C     Am7         C                Am7             G
  The Queen of hearts,   Still making tarts,   And I, And I, And I, I'm not making hay
               C        C          Am7      F            C        G     C
  Oh,  But I loved too much,   By such and such,   Is happiness thrown away
 
  [INST]  AS VERSE     C   C    Am7    F     C   G     C
                       F    F   C      Am7   C   Am7   G
                       F    F   C      Am7   C   Am7   G
                       C   C    Am7    F     C   G     C
 
     C             C   Am7      F                  C                         G     C
  I gave her the gifts, Of the mind,  Oh, Lord, I gave her, I gave her the secret sign
           F       F         C   Am7           C         Am7                G
  That's known to all the artists,  Who have known, True gods of sound and time
        F        F         C        Am7
  With word and tint,  I never did stint
     C          Am7                            G
  I gave her,  Reams of,  Reams of,  Poems to say
            C         C               Am7         F
  With our own name there,   And her shiny black hair
             C           G        C
  Like the clouds over fields of May
 
         C     C            Am7         F        C          G               C
  On a quiet street,  Where old ghosts meet,  I see her, I see her walking now
   F        F                      C    Am7
  Away from me, Away from me,  So hurriedly
           C                     Am7              G
  And my reason, My reason, My reason, My reason must allow
       F        F          C     Am7           C     Am7      G
  That I have woo'ed,  Not as I should,   A creature made of clay
             C    C             Am7      F
  When the angel woos,  And the clay he lose
      C            G           C
  His wings  At the dawn of the day,        Alright
 
  [OUTRO]   AS VERSE   C   C    Am7    F     C   G     C
                       F    F   C      Am7   C   Am7   G
                       F    F   C      Am7   C   Am7   G
                       C   C    Am7    F     C   G     C
