Angel Mine
Capo On First

twice
CAm
He searched for those wings that he knew
Em
that this angel should have at her back.
F
And although he can't find them
C
he really don't mind
G
because he knows they'll grow back.
CAm
And he reached for that halo that he knows
Em
that she had when she first caught his eye.
F
Although his hand came back empty
C
he's really not worried
G
because he knows it still shines.
Chorus:
FG
I can't promise that I'll grow those wings
CGF
or keep this tarnished halo shined
FG
but I'll never betray your trust
C
angel mine.
CAm
I search all the time on the ground
Em
for our shadows cast side by side.
FC
Just to remind me that I haven't gone crazy
G
that you exist and are mine
CAm
And I know that your skin is as warm and as real
Em
as that smile in your eyes.
FC
F
But I have to keep touching and smelling
G
and tasting for fear it's all lies.
Chorus:
FG
I can't promise that I'll grow those wings
CGF
or keep this tarnished halo shined
FG
but I'll never betray your trust
C
angel mine.
CAm
Last night I awoke from the deepest of sleeps
Em
with your voice in my head.
F
And I could tell by your breathing
C
that you were still sleeping
G
I re-peated the words that you had said.
Chorus:
FG
I can't promise that I'll grow those wings
CGF
or keep this tarnished halo shined
FG
but I'll never betray your trust
C
angel mine.
FG
I can't promise that I'll grow those wings
CGF
or keep this tarnished halo shined
FG
but I'll never betray your trust
C
angel mine.
