♫ Intro:

G D G D A F#m G D G




♫ Verse 1:
G                        D
You know the distance never made a difference to me
                          G     D
I swam a lake of fire
I'd have walked across the floor of any sea
                       A F#m
Ignored the vastness between all that can be seen
  G       D
And all that we believe

♫ Chorus:
               G    D G
So I thought you were like an angel to me


♫ Verse 2:
G                        G  D
Funny how true colors shine in darkness and in secrecy
       D                   G    D
If there were scarlet flags, they washed out in the mind of me
D                     A F#m
Where a blinding light shone on you every night
    G     D
Either side of my sleep


♫ Chorus:
                  G    D
Where you were held frozen like an angel to me


♫ Post-Chorus:
       F#m7  Em7
It ain't the being alone

Sha-la-la
       F#m7    Em7
It ain't the empty home, baby
       F#m7    Em7
You know I'm good on my own
                  G    D
Sha-la-la, baby, no, it's more the being unknown
                  G    D
So much of the living, love, is the being unknown


♫ Verse 3:
G                        G     D
You called me angel for the first time, my heart leapt from me
                     G     D
You smile now
I can see its pieces still stuck in your teeth
             D
And what's left of it
I listen to it tick
   A    F#m
Every tedious beat


♫ Chorus:
           G    D
Going unknown as any angel to me


♫ Post-Chorus:
       F#m7 Em7
It ain't the being alone

Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, la, la-la
       F#m7    Em7
It ain't the empty home, baby

Sha-la-la, la-la-la
     F#m7      Em7
You know I'm good on my own
                  G   D
Sha-la-la, baby, no, it's more the being unknown
                     G    D
And there are some people, love, who are better unknown
