Angel To Me

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 Outro G D G D A F#m G D G
