Chords with lyrics

Intro: E MajorE BB C# minorC#m A augmentedA E MajorE

E MajorE                  BB
We met in a bar / Out on Chesapeake Bay

            C# minorC#m             A augmentedA
With her white patent boots / and her blouse, red Leme

      E MajorE              BB
A augmentedA tabletop dancer / She would smile on cue

           C# minorC#m  A augmentedA     E MajorE
Ah, those lips of an Angel / Angel in Blue


(Same progression as 1st verse)

She'd been dancing for ages / In cities of bars
She was kicking the habit / of scoring in cars
She'd been drained of her spirit / all caged up in a zoo
Ah, a wildcat Angel / Angel in Blue

C# minorC#m             BB
And as she stared out into nowhere

C# minorC#m                        BB
I thought, yes I thought she might break down and cry

      AbmAbm             A augmentedA
Oh, when I whispered I thought I could love her

        E/G#            BB
She just said "Baby, don't even bother to try."


(Back to verse progression)

And I watched as she spoke / Her words chilled my bones
All her friends did her favors / that were really just loans
And she never had dreams / so they never came true
Ah, the palest of Angels / Angel in Blue

(Interlude: Guitar only)

And the bees they had stung her / the birds they had flown
There were guys she could number / but none had she known
And she never had dreams / so they never came true
Ah, my fade away Angel / Angel in Blue

(Outtro)

C# minorC#m        E MajorE

(repeat till tired)
