Angels
3 5 -4 4 4 -4
Spend all your time waiting
4 4 -4 4 3
For that second chance
3 3 5 5 5 5 -4 4 -4
For a break that would make it okay
3 3 4 -4 -4 5
There’s always some reason
3 5 -4 4 4 3
To feel not good enough
5 -5 6 6 6 -6 6 5 -4
And it’s hard at the end of the day
4 5 5 -4 -4
I need some distraction
5 -4 4 4 4 3
Oh, beautiful release
5 5 5 5 -4 4 -4
Memories seep from my veins
-4 5 6 -6 -6
It maybe empty
-6 6 5 -4 4
And weightless and maybe
3 4 4 -4 4 -3
I’ll find some peace tonight
4 -4 5 5 5 5 4
In the arms of the angel
5 6 6 5 6
Fly away from here
4 4 -6 -6 -6 -6 6
From this dark, cold hotel room
6 -5 5 5 5 -4 4 -4
And the endlessness that you fear
4 -4 5 5 5 5 4
You are pulled from the wreckage
5 6 -6 6 6 5 5 -4
Of your silent reverie
4 4 4 -6 -6 -6 -6 6
You’re in the arms of the angel
6 -5 5 -5 5 -4 5 -4 4 4
May you find some comfort here
5 5 -4 3 4 -4
So tired of the straight line
4 -4 3 4 4 4 3
And everywhere you turn
3 5 5 5 5 -4 4 -4
There’s vultures and thieves at your back
3 3 4 -4 -4 5
The storm keeps on twisting
3 5 -4 4 4 3
Keep on building the lies
5 -5 6 6 6 -6 6 5 -4
That you make up for all that you lack
4 5 5 5 -4 4 -4
It don’t make no difference
4 -4 4 4 4 3
Escaping one last time
4 5 5 5 -4 4 -4
It’s easier to believe
-4 5 6 -6 -6
In this sweet madness
-6 -6 6 5 -4 4
Oh, this glorious sadness
3 4 4 -4 4 -3
That brings me to my knees
4 -4 5 5 5 5 4
In the arms of the angel
5 6 6 5 6
Fly away from here
4 4 -6 -6 -6 -6 6
From this dark, cold hotel room
6 -5 5 5 5 -4 4 -4
And the endlessness that you fear
4 -4 5 5 5 5 4
You are pulled from the wreckage
5 6 -6 6 6 5 5 -4
Of your silent reverie
4 4 4 -6 -6 -6 -6 6
You’re in the arms of the angel
6 -5 5 -5 5 -4 5 -4 4 4
May you find some comfort here
