Angel
Sarah McLachlan
I wasn't going to put another version up, but the ones here aren't quite right,
and the one that is seems a
little over-complicated
Here's an easy version although it may not be exact or deadon for the fussy types. Enjoy
** Capo - 1st Fret If you want to play along with the song **
Intro
C -> Cadd9
C -> Cadd9
(C) Dm F
Spend all your time waiting for that second chance,
C F G
for a break that would make it okay.
(G) Dm F
There's always some reason to feel not good enough,
C F G
and it's hard, at the end of the day.
(G) Dm F
I need some distraction, Oh, a beautiful release.
C F G
....memories seep from my veins.
(G) Dm F C F G
Let me be empty, Oh, and weightless and maybe, I'll find some peace tonight.
CHORUS:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/sarah_mclachlan/arms_of_an_angel_crd_ver_2.html ]
C Cadd9 C Em
In the arms of the angel, fly away from here,
F C G
from this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you feel.
C Cadd9 C Em
You are pulled from the wreckage, Of your silent reverie.
F C G C
You're in the arms of the angel, may you find.... some comfort here.
Verse 2
(C) Dm F
So tired of the straight line, and everywhere you turn,
C F G
there's vultures and thieves at your back.
(G) Dm F
The storm keeps on twisting. Keep on building the lies
C G
that you make up for all that you lack.
(G) Dm F
Don't make no difference, escape one last time.
C F G
It's easier to believe...
(G) Dm F
in this sweet madness, Oh, this glorious sadness,
C F G
that brings me to my knees.
CHORUS
C Cadd9 C Em
In the arms of the angel, fly away from here,
F C G
from this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you feel.
C Cadd9 C Em
You are pulled from the wreckage, Of your silent reverie.
F C G C
You're in the arms of the angel, may you find.... some comfort here.
F C G C
You're in the arms of the angel, may you find.... some comfort here.
