G bb c :||
Verse 1:

In the dark, i like to read his mind

To tear him away

When i tell him that i'm falling in love

Why does he say

4. _ Angels Never Call
Notes: ok - instead of trying to worry about the differences between
G-->gsus, g-->c/g, and g-->am7/g i'm just calling it glick.
The notes in the lick are (in order) g d g b c-c c b with
The fifth and sixth tied. the second chord "fits" with any
Of the three except that there isn't an "a" in it per se,
But there does seem to be an "e". on the other hand it does
Have the same "tone" as a c/g would have. so i'm punting! :-)
*** intro:
Glick x4
*** verse 1:
Glick glick glick glick
I used to watch her sleep an angel on vacation
Glick glick glick glick
I fell in love so deep far too far to mention
Am c2
She looked just like a thousand stars
Glick glick
When they came out at night
Am c2
But when i looked inside her heart
Glick g(1/2 lick)
I found it locked up tight
*** chorus:
G am7/g c2
Oh angels never help you
G am7/g c2 g glick x4
Cause angels always fall
*** verse 2:
She smoked a cigarette glick glick
It only blurred my vision glick glick
I couldn't help but stay glick glick
With my first impression glick glick
I'm wondering with every breath am c2
What caused my fall from grace glick glick
I guess i beat myself to death am c2
Against her lovely face glick glick(1/2)
*** chorus:
Oh angels never help you g am7/g c2
Cause angels always fall g am7/g c2 g (am7)
*** chorus:
And angels (it's simply that i never knew her) g am7/g c2
Sometimes kiss you (wish to god that i had known) g am7/g c2
Oh but angels (but everything that i remember) g am7/g c2
Never call (is gone) g (am7)
*** bridge:
D | d | c | c | f | f | eb | eb
Oh angels (it's simply that i never knew her) g am7/g c2
Never help you (wish to god that i had known) g am7/g c2
Cause angels (but everything that i remember) g am7/g c2
Always fall (is gone) g (am7)
And angels (it's simply that i never knew her) g am7/g c2
Sometimes kiss you (wish to god that i had known) g am7/g c2
Oh but angels (but everything that i remember) g am7/g c2
Never call (is gone) g (am7)

5. _ You Know The Rest
(it's in f#)
Here i go again
Making promises
If i tell you no
It still sounds like yes
You know the rest
Do i have to say it?
Am i in too deep?
Can i still confess?
-when you trusted me
That was just a guess
I guess
You know the rest
You know the rest
Do i have to say it?
Well, i warned you once
But without success
And i just escape
With my heart
A mess
Know the rest
(it's not so easy)
You know the rest
(its not that easy)
Do i have to say it?
You know the rest.

Take your pick 'cause it don't really matter

How about we break with tradition? bm | d | g
We'll pretend we're everything that you believe we're not bm | d | g
So he said, 'i guess i'll try, but on one condition. bm | d | g
Someone ought to let me know when it gets close to ten o'clock.' bm | d | g
But all in all, another fall won't even make a dent bm | em | g a

You keep saying that you're only human bm | d | g
What you mean is that you think you're the only human here bm | d | g
Still i think that it's just a rumour bm | d | g
And you might as well be taking it home as a souvenir. bm | d | g

How about we break with tradition? ||: bm | d | g :||

For relics of our history...

8. _ Winning The War
You fight just for the sake of it
You know what hurts the most
You might have once been faking it
But now it cuts too close
Em f#m bm
Winning the war
Em f#m bm
And losing every battle
Em f#m bm
You close the door
Em f#m bm
On happy ever after
We should have stopped it long ago
When there was love still
But we would give in to ego
And never stop until
Winning the war
And losing every battle
You close the door
On happy ever after
I know, you know
Winning the war
Is not winning at all
I know, you know
Winning the war
Is not winning at all
Winning the war
And losing every battle
You close the door
On happy ever after
