Angels
Tune up half-a-half-step to play with the CD. (I'm told that its quite
common studio practice just to 'speed up' the final mix of a track either
to balance out the length of each side of an album or to brighten the
track up a bit. Doesn't stop it being a pain in the machine heads tho').
A D (e) A (c#)
Don't be afraid close your eyes
[(b)] lay it all d[D]own don't you [A]cry
A - guitar
D (c#) D -keyboard
can't you see I-I'm going where I can see the sun rise -$
(d) (b) D slide E
I've been talking to my angels and they say that it's..
..alright I've always had to run
I don't know just why desire slowly smoking
under the mid west sky but there's
something waiting out there that says
[(E)]
I've got to try I've been talking to my angels
[G]
and they say that it's alright this town
(bridge):
[G] this town thinks I'm crazy, they just think I'm s[Em]tran[(b]ge[a][b][a][b][a)]
[G] sometimes they would own me sometimes they wish I'd ch[Em]ange
Em F#m C#m
but I can feel the thunder underneath my feet
E D A %
I sold my soul for freedom, it's lonely but it's sweet
(repeat verse1)
A D A D to fade
On the keyboard sections (everything except the second verse)- the
UPPERCASE letters are full chords and lowercase are individual notes.
This arrangement doesn't translate very well onto guitar. Suggest
improvising around this basic pattern for verses 1/3 :
// D(sus9) A \\
\\ //
D slide E is
EADGBe
xx0232 - D
x02220 - A
[355433]022100 [-]- [G]E
022000 - Em
[244222]x46654 [-]- [F#m]C#m
This song's quite tricky to play/sing- there are two key changes in the
bridge (from A to E) and %(E back down to A).
I keep having trouble with the end of the third line in the verse ($). I
think on keyboard its " c# D ", but on guitar, " A " sounds better,
though every so often it sounds like a Bm. Whaddayathink?
I think there's still plenty of room for improvement here, so feel free
