Angels Never Call


Notes: OK - instead of trying to worry about the differences between
G-->Gsus, G-->C/G, and G-->Am7/G I'm just calling it Glick.
The notes in the lick are (in order) G D G B C-C C B with
the fifth and sixth tied. The second chord ";fits"; with any
of the three except that there isn't an ";A"; in it per se,
but there does seem to be an ";E";. On the other hand it does
have the same ";tone"; as a C/G would have. So I'm punting! :-)

*** Intro:
Glick x4

*** Verse 1:

Glick Glick Glick Glick
I used to watch her sleep an angel on vacation
Glick Glick Glick Glick
I fell in love so deep far too far to mention
Am C2
She looked just like a thousand stars
Glick Glick
when they came out at night
Am C2
but when I looked inside her heart
Glick G(1/2 lick)
I found it locked up tight


*** Chorus:

G Am7/G C2
Oh angels never help you
G Am7/G C2 G Glick x4
cause angels always fall

*** Verse 2:

She smoked a cigarette Glick Glick
it only blurred my vision Glick Glick
I couldn't help but stay Glick Glick
with my first impression Glick Glick
I'm wondering with every breath Am C2
what caused my fall from grace Glick Glick
I guess I beat myself to death Am C2
against her lovely face Glick Glick(1/2)

*** Chorus:

Oh angels never help you G Am7/G C2
cause angels always fall G Am7/G C2 G (Am7)

*** Chorus:

and angels (it's simply that I never knew her) G Am7/G C2
sometimes kiss you (wish to God that I had known) G Am7/G C2
oh but angels (but everything that I remember) G Am7/G C2
never call (is gone) G (Am7)

*** Bridge:

Oh angels (it's simply that I never knew her) G Am7/G C2
