Short intro: C, F, C, F
C... [1st verse]
Am F
Spend all your time waiting for that second chance
C F G
For the break that would make it okay
Am F
There's always some reason to feel not good enough
C F G
And it's hard at the end of the day
Am F
I need some distraction, a beautiful release
C F G
Memories seep from my veins
Am F
Let me be empty, oh and weightless, and maybe
C F G
I'll find some peace tonight
[Chorus]
C F C
In the arms of the angel,
G - Am/G7 G
fly away from here,
Am - F Am
From this dark, cold hotel room,
Em-F G
and the endlessness that you fear,
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/sarah_mclachlan/angel_crd_ver_4.html ]
C F C
You are pulled from the wreckage,
G Am/G7 G
of your silent reverie,
Am F Am
You're in the arms of the angel,
Em-G C
may you find some comfort here.
F, C, F... [2nd verse]
Am F
So tired of this straight line, and everywhere you turn
C F G
There's vultures and theives at your back
Am F
The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies
C F G
That you make up for all that you lack.
Am F
It don't make no difference, escape one last time
C-F G
It's easier to believe
Am F
In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness
C F G
That brings me to my knees.
[Repeat chorus...]
Am F Am
You're in the arms of the angel,
Em-G C
may you find some comfort here.
F, C, F, C [To fade...]
