Lyrics and Chords:
{Verse}
G Cadd9
You sounded so good on the phone
G
All moved up and all moved on
Dsus
Me and gravity we never could agree
G Cadd9
I can almost see the sky
G
When I need to close my eyes
Dsus
You're the only thing that's worth holding on to
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/matt_nathanson/angel_tab_ver_2.html ]
{Chorus}
G Dsus
Angel you sing about beautiful things
Em7 Cadd9
And all I want to do is believe
G Dsus
I traded my dreams for this mess of memories
Em7 Cadd9
And they just stopped working for me
{Interlude}

{Verse}
G Cadd9
I'm not a monster I believe
G
Like a liar would believe
Dsus
Helps me navigate the wooden smiles, the raging sea
G Cadd9
All my heroes pull their heads
G
Like a fighter would I guess
Dsus
No one really ever likes getting older
{Chorus}
G Dsus
Angel you sing about beautiful things
Em7 Cadd9
And all I want to do is believe
G Dsus
I traded my dreams for this mess of memories
Em7 Cadd9
And they just stopped working for me
