Lirik Lagu Raglan Road – Luke Kelly

 

[INTRO:]

 |D   |%

 

[Verse 1] |D |% |% |G

On Raglan Road of an Autumn day, |D |G |D |%

I saw her first and I knew. |G |% |D |Bm

That her dark hair would weave a snare, |D |% |A |%

that I might one day rue. |G |% |D |Bm

I saw the danger and I passed, |D |% |A |%

a-long the en-chanted way. |D |% |% |G

And I said: “Let grief be a falling leaf, |D |G |D |%

at the dawning of the day.”

 

[Verse 2] |D |% |% |G

On Grafton Street in Novem-ber, |D |G |D |%

we tripped lightly a-long the ledge. |G |% |D |Bm

Of a deep ra-vine where can be seen, |D |% |A |%

the worth of passion’s pledge. |G |% |D |Bm

The Queen of Hearts still making tarts, |D |% |A |%

and I not making hay. |D |% |% |G

Oh I loved too much and by such, |D |G |D |%

by such is happiness thrown a-way.

 

[Verse 3] |D |% |% |G

I gave her gifts of the mind, |D |G |D |%

I gave her the secret sign. |G |% |D |Bm

That’s known to the artists who have known, |D |% |A |%

the true Gods of sound and stone. |G |% |D |Bm

And word and tint with-out stint, |D |% |A |%

I gave her poems to say. |D |% |% |G

With her own name there and her long dark hair, |D |G |D |%

like clouds over fields of May.

 

[Verse 4] |D |% |% |G

On a quiet street where old ghosts meet, |D |G |D |%

I see her walking now. |G |% |D |Bm

A-way from me so hurried-ly, |D |% |A |%

my reason must al-low. |G |% |D |Bm

That I have loved not as I should, |D |% |A |%

a creature made of clay. |D |% |% |G

When the angel woes the clay he’ll lose, |D |G |D |D

his wings at the dawn of day.
