Amazing track written by Richard Thompson and David Swarbrick and sung by Sandy
Denny on Fairport Convention's "Liege & Lief" album.
A#m C# G# Fm
Within the fire and out upon the sea
A#m G# A#m
Crazy Man Michael was walking
A#m C# G# Fm
He met with a raven with eyes black as coals
A#m G# A#m
And shortly they were a-talking
Fm A#m
"Your future, your future, I would tell to you
Fm G#
Your future, you often have asked me
A#m G# A#m Fm
Your true love will die by your own right hand
A#m G# A#m
And Crazy Man Michael will cursed be"
A#m C# G# Fm
Michael he ranted and Michael he raved
A#m G# A#m
And beat at the four winds with his fists-oh
A#m C# G# Fm
He laughed and he cried, he shouted and he swore
A#m G# A#m
For his mad mind had trapped him with a kiss-oh
Fm A#m
"You speak with an evil, you speak with a hate
Fm G#
You speak for the devil that haunts me
A#m G# A#m Fm
For is she not the fairest in all the broad land?
A#m G# A#m
Your sorceror's words are to taunt me"
A#m C# G# Fm
He took out his dagger of fire and of steel
Fm G#
And struck down the raven through the heart-oh
A#m C# G# Fm
The bird fluttered long and the sky it did spin
Fm G# A#m
And the cold earth did wonder and start-oh
Fm A#m
"Oh, where is the raven that I struck down dead
Fm G#
That here'd lie here on the ground-oh?
A#m G# A#m Fm
I see but my true love with a wound so red"
A#m G# A#m
Her lover's heart it did pound-oh
A#m C# G# Fm
Crazy Man Michael, he wanders and walks
And talks to the night and the day-oh
A#m C# G# Fm
But his eyes they are sane and his speech it is clear
A#m G# A#m
And he longs to be far away-oh
Fm A#m
Michael he whistles the simplest of tunes
Fm G#
And asks the wild woods their pardon
A#m G# A#m Fm
For his true love is flown into every flower grown
A#m G# A#m
And he must be keeper of the garden
