INTRO
Am - C - G - Dm - Am - Em - Am - Em
Am C G Em
Within the park and out upon the sea
Am G Am
Crazy Man Michael was walking
Am C G Em
He met with a raven with eyes black as coals
Am G Am
And shortly they fell a talking
Em Am
Your future, your future I will tell to you
Em G
Your future you often have asked me
Am G Am Em
Your true love will die by your own right hand
Am G Am
And Crazy Man Michael will cursed be
C G Em
Michael he ranted and Michael he raved
Am G Am
And beat the four winds with his fists o
C G Em
He laughed and he cried he shouted and he swore
Am G Am
For his mad mind had trapped him with a curse-o
Em Am
You speak with an evil, you speak with a hate
Em G
You speak for the devil that haunts me
Am G Am Em
For is she not the fairest in all the broad land
Am G Am
Your sorcerer's words are to taunt me.
Break Am - C - G - Dm - Am - Em - Am - Em
Am C G Em
He took out his dagger of fire and of steel
Am G Am
And struck down the raven through the heart-o
C G Em
The bird fluttered long and the sky it did spin
Am G Am
And the cold earth did wonder and stare-o
Em Am
Oh where is the raven that I struck down dead
Em G
That here did lie on the ground-o
Am G Am Em
I see that my true love with a wound so red
Am G Am
Where her lover's heart it did pound-o
C G Em
Crazy Man Michael he wanders and calls
Am G Am
And talks to the night and the day-o
C G Em
But his eyes they are sane and his speech it is plain
Am G Am
And he longs to be far away-o
Em Am
Michael he whistles the simplest of tunes
Em G
And asks the wild roses their pardon
Am G Am Em
For his true love is flown into every flower grown
Am G Am
And he must be keeper of the garden
