Key: C

🎸 Intro:
Fadd9  Am7  C  G
Dm  Am7  C  G



🎸 Verse 1:
Fadd9         Am7
When an angel fell somewhere in Lothian
C       G          Dm
I was only a child but I trust my eyes
           Am7     C
She burnt up like a comet before me
           G
Before I could even say "Hi"
Fadd9         Am7
Saw kingdoms come and go in Bernicia
C            G        Dm
With a space station rattling above my head
        Am7
And I saw the dead
      C  G
I saw the dead

🎸 Verse 2:
Fadd9         Am7
Back then, yeah, the door was always open
C              G        Dm
I'd come and go, back and forth, anytime I need
          Am7      C
But I'm needing it more now than ever
          G
'Cause I'm fading away
Fadd9       Am7
And I claw at the door every bad night
C          G          Dm
But somehow it's blocked from thе other side
        Am7     C
I claw 'til my skin comes apart
        G
Until I feel something


Harmonica 🎸 Interlude:
Fadd9  Am7  C  G  Dm  Am7  C  G
Fadd9  Am7  C  G  Dm  Am7  C  G

🎸 Verse 3:
Fadd9        Am7
And I remember that pain in my mother
C           G         Dm
Being helpless and feckless and far too young
         Am7
My brother was spiraling down
     C             G
He said “Kid it's not me, it's this town”
Fadd9          Am7
So I rail against that feeling when it comes
C          G         Dm
I no longer have solitude behind that door
       Am7     C
And I know drugs that can hold it
          G
You gotta hold it yourself


🎸 Verse 4:
Fadd9         Am7
I wish an angel fell somewhere in Lothian
C               G         Dm
She could've fixed all the problems that I cannot fix
          Am7
But one day I might have kids myself
   C               G
And hope that I don't fuck them up myself

Hey!
