WINGLESS ANGELS

BOW THAYER

C# F# C# F# C# F# C#

INTRO:

VERSE:

'Tween now and then

Seems like a long, long time

I'd duck beneath the radar and

I'd sneak acroos the line

Stop up in St Alban's

And up in Montreal

I'd make pretend I didn't know

C# F# C#

What was being bought and sold

VERSE:

I met a lot of strange folk

In this dirty game

One so evil

I won't even say the name

She had me from

The first time around

She held me so sweetly as

She pinned me down

CHORUS:

B C#

And it felt so real

B C#

It felt so right

All we ever did was eat and

Drink and fuck and fight

B C#

Well The deal got bent

B C#

She turned me in

I ducked beneath the radar

C# F# C# C#

I was on the road again

VERSE:

Strong of muscle

Strong of will

Weak of the heart at

The top of the hill

From up there one can rule

For miles around

But humble is the man

Who walks back down

CHORUS:

B C#

And the road is rough

B C#

It's hard to see

Gotta slow down the pace

Have some faith in destiny

B C#

And I hear them sirens

B C#

They're calling to me

Them silver tongues they tempt me

With unbridled clarity

INSTRUMENTAL:

C# F# B C#

VERSE:

I dip my cup in holy water

Tip my crown of thorns

I stumbled down off of the hill

With the cross that I was on

Now and then

I drift back in time

I think about the love and lust

That I left behind

CHORUS:

B C#

And it's good bye Rose

B C#

Good bye gun

Hello to that virgin land

Where I belong

B C#

And I hear them voices

B C#

Calling me

A host of wingless angels

In perfect harmony

C# F# C# F# C# C#
