G D Esus2 G D G
On raglan road on an autumn day i saw him first and knew
Cadd9 G Esus2 G Esus2 D
That his dark hair would weave a snare that i might one day rue
Cadd9 G Esus2 G Esus2 D
I saw the danger and yet i walked along the enchanted way
G D Esus2 G D G
And i said "let grief be a falling leaf at the dawning of the day"
[Verse 2]
D Esus2 G D G
On grafton street in november we tripped lightly along the ledge
Cadd9 G Esus2 G Esus2 D
Of a deep ravine where can be seen the worth of passions play
Cadd9 G Esus2 G Esus2 D
The queen of hearts still making tarts and i not making hay
G D Esus2 G D G
But i loved too much by such and such is happiness thrown away
[Verse 3]
D Esus2 G D G
I gave him the gifts of the mind i gave him the secret sign
Cadd9 G Esus2 G Esus2 D
That's known to all the artists who have known true gods of sound and time
Cadd9 G Esus2 G Esus2 D
With word and tint i never did stint i gave him reams of poems to say
G D Esus2 G D G
With his own name there and his shiny black hair like the clouds over fields of may
[Verse 4]
D Esus2 G D G
On a quiet street where old ghosts meet i see him walking now
Cadd9 G Esus4 G Esus2 D
Away from me so hurriedly my reason must allow
Cadd9 G Esus2 G Esus2 D
That i had wooed not as i should a creature made of clay
G D Esus2 G D G
When the angel woos the clay he'll lose his wings at the dawn of the day
