[E]
[Em] Love came to my door with [A] a sleeping roll
And a madman so he thought [Bm] for sure I'd seen him
[G] Dancing up a river in [A] the dark
looking for a woman to [G] call
[A]
[E] [A] He [E]
[Em] was playing on the sidewalk [A] for passing change when something strange
Glory [Bm] train passed through him [G] so he buried the coins he made in [A] people's park and we're looking for a [C] woman to [G] call
[E] And
[C] Seemed like he read my [G] mind
He saw me [D] mistrusting and still acting [A] kind he saw how [C] I worried
[G] Sometimes I worry [A] sometimes Mmm
[E]
[E]
[Em] All the guilty people [A] he said they've all seen the stain on their daily bread on [B] their Christian names
[Bm]
I [D] cleared myself I [A] sacrificed my booze
And you could [C] come [G] please
I'd complete [A] you
[E]
[Em] His eyes were the color of the sand in the [E] sea and the more he talked to me
The [F#] more he [Bm] reached me, but I [G] couldn't let go
[A] of LA city [C] of the fallen
[G] [A] Angel
[D]
[E]
