Verse:

    Gm7
You live your life in the songs you hear on the rock & roll radio
    Gm7
And when a young girl doesn't have any friends, that's a really nice place to go,
Cm7                  F7              Bbmaj7                     Ebmaj7
  Folks hoping you'd turn out cool,    but they had to take you out of school

You're a little touched, you know, Angie baby

Verse 2:

Gm7
Lovers appear in your room each night and they whirl you across the floor,
         Gm7
But they always seem to fade away when your Daddy taps on your door,
Cm7                 F7           Bbmaj7         Ebmaj7
  "Angie, girl, are you alright? Tell the radio goodnight"
D7sus4         D7          Gm7
All alone once more, Angie baby

Living in a world of make  believe,
      Gm7
Well, maybe

Verse 3:

Gm7                        Gm7
Stopping at her house is a neighbour boy with evil on his mind,
       Gm7
'Cause he's been peeking in Angie's room at night through her window blind,
Cm7                      F7         Bbmaj7               Ebmaj7
  "I see your folks have gone away. Would you dance with me today?
     D7sus4                      D7          Gm7
I'll show you how to have a good time, Angie baby  (A-a-a-ngie baby,  A-a-a-ngie baby)
       Gm7

Bridge:

        Gm7   N.C.
When he walks in her room, he feels confused, like he walked into a play
        Gm7     N.C                                                         Gm7  Am7
And the music's so loud, it spins him around til his soul has lost its way
Bb                                   B
   And as she turns the volume down,
C                                      D
  He's getting smaller with the sound,
Eb                                    E
  It seems to pull him off the ground,
F                              G
  Toward the radio he's bound, never to be found......

Verse 4:

    Gm7
The headlines read that a boy disappeared, and everyone thinks he died,
        Gm7               Gm7
'Cept a crazy girl with a secret lover who keeps her satisfied
Cm7               F7         Bbmaj7          Ebmaj7
  It's so nice to be insane, no one asks you to explain
D7sus4        D7          Gm7
Radio by your side, Angie baby

Chorus:

Cm7  F7    Bbmaj7           Cm7   F7    Bbmaj7
  An - gie baby,   you're a spe - cial  lady,
Ebmaj7      F/Eb     Ebmaj7
Living in a world of make  believe...................
      Gm7
Well, maybe
      Gm7
Well, maybe (A-a-a-ngie baby,   A-a-a-ngie baby)
      Gm7
Well, maybe (A-a-a-ngie baby,   A-a-a-ngie baby)
