You should have [G#] been an [C]
angel
[B] It would have [A] suited you
[Bm] My lonely, [A] triptych angel
She [D] knows just what to [E] do
In the half-light of morning
In a [Bm] world [A] between the sheaves
[Bm] I swear I saw [A] her angel wing
My [D] vision [A] was [E]
complete
And I know I'll never [A] want another
[E] sweetie
Can there be more [D] in this world [A] than the joy of just [F#] watching you sleep?
She knows just what to feel
Won't someone tell me how [E] to [B] feel?
[A]
[E] [B] [A]
[E] I'll be etched in stone or just scratched [B] in the [A] sand
Waiting for the waves to come and [E] reclaim the land
Will the sun [B] shine [D] on sweetness [B] and [A] light?
Burn us to a cinder [D] half-dressed on [E] satellite
I'm on a tightrope, baby
[D] Nine miles high
[A] Striding through the clouds on [D] my riveted [E] sky
I'm on a tightrope, baby
[D] One thing I have [Bm] found
[A] I don't know how [F#] to stop it
[G] It's a long, [Bm] long, [Em] long, [E] long way down
[D]
[A] [E]
She's all that ever [D] mattered and all that [B] ever [A] willed
Like a bit of running flow [D] but I'll never get [B] knocked in
The boats in the harbor slipped from their [A] chains
Head for new [D] horizons, that's [E] who you say
I'm on a [B] tightrope, baby
[D] Nine miles [Bm] high
[A] Striding through the clouds on [D] my riveted [E] sky
I'm on a tightrope, baby
[D] One thing I have found
[A] I don't know how to stop it
It's [Em] a tightrope, [E] baby
[D] Nine miles [B] high
[A] Striding through the clouds [D] on my [E] riveted sky
[B] I'm on a tightrope, [E] baby
One [D] thing I have found
[A] I don't know how to [G] stop it
It's a long, [B] [Em] long, long, long way down
[E] [G] [A]
