Title: Angel Fire
Artist: Fernando Ortega
Album: This Bright Hour
F#m D/Dsus2 A
I never knew the dusk could seem so sad,
A Dsus2 C#m D
an empty aching in my soul.
F#m E D/Dsus2 A
In this bright hour I speak your name in the wind,
E Dsus2 F#m
the shining world outlasts us all.
F#m D/Dsus2 A
Even the mountains seem to know you're gone,
A Dsus2 C#m D
the foothills shimmer where they stand.
F#m E D/Dsus2 A
The sky is still and much too beautiful,
E Dsus2 F#m
and I am missing you again.
E Dsus2 A
Lift me over the San Gabriels,
F#m Bm7 E
leaning into the southern sky.
Bm/F#m D Dsus2
The foothills burning in the afterglow,
E Dsus2 A
an angel fire passing by.

F#m D/Dsus2 A
I think of songs I might have sung to you,
A Dsus2 C#m D
the love I wanted you to hear.
F#m E D/Dsus2 A
Everytime the blazing sun goes down,
E Dsus2 F#m
another promise disappears.
F#m D/Dsus2 A
I never knew the dusk could break my heart,
A Dsus2 C#m D
so much longing folding in,
F#m E D/Dsus2 A
I'd give years away to have you here,
E Dsus2 F#m
you know I can't lose you again.
E Dsus2 A
Lift me over the San Gabriels,
F#m Bm7 E
leaning into the southern sky.
Bm/F#m D Dsus2
A flight of angels must be in the wind,
E Dsus2 F#m
I know they'll pass this way tonight.
E Dsus2 A
Help me remember the San Gabriels,
F#m Bm7 E
the foothills burning in the light.
Bm F#m D Dsus2
Let my heart rise up to where you are,
E Dsus2 A
I long to be with you tonight.
E Dsus2 A
I long to be with you tonight,
E Dsus2 F#m
I long to be with you tonight
