[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]On Raglan road,
of [Dsus4]an autumn [C]day,
I [G]saw [C]her first and [G]knew,
That [C]her dark hair would
[G]weave a [Em]snare,
That [G]i might one day r[D]ue.
[C]I saw the [G]danger and i [Em]passed
[G]along the enchanted [D]way.
And [G]i said let grief be a fallen [C]leaf,
At the [G]dawning [C]of the [G]day.

[Verse 2]
[G]
On Grafton street in November,
[C]We tripped lig[G]htly alo[C]ng the[G] ledge,
Of the [C]deep ravine where [G]can be [Em]seen,
[G]The worth of passion's [D]pledge.
[C]The Queen of hearts still [G]making [Em]tarts,
An[G]d i not making [D]hay.
Oh [G]i loved too much and by such by [C]such,
Is [G]happiness [C]thrown away.
[G]

[Verse 3]
I gave her gifts of the mind,
I [C]gave her [G]the secret [C]sign,
That's [G]known [C]to the artists [G]who have
[Em]known the [G]true gos of sound and [D]stone.
And [C]word and tint [G]without [Em]stint,
For i [G]gave her poems [D]to say,
With her [G]own name there,
And her own dark [C]hair,
Like [G]clouds over [C]fields of May.

[Verse 4]
On [G]a quiet street [Dsus4]where old ghosts mee[C]t,
I [G]see [Bm]her [C]walking [G]now.
[C]Away from me so [G]hurriedly,[Em]
My [G]reason must al[D]low,
That [C]i had loved not a[G]s i s[Em]hould,
A [G]creature made of [D]clay.
When the [G]angel woos the play,
He's [C]lose his [G]wings at the
[C]dawning [G]of the day.
