[Intro]
G Dm C/G C/G
[Verse]
When you Gleft this town, with your Dmwindows down
And the C/Gwilderness inside
Let the Gexits pass, all the Dmtar and glass
'Til the C/Groad and sky align
[Chorus]
The Gstrangers in this Dmtown,
They C/Graise you up just to Amcut you down
Oh GAngela it's a Dmlong time cominC/Gg
[Verse]
And your GVolvo lights lit up Dmgreen and white
With the C/Gcities on the signs
But you Gheld your course to some Dmdistant war
In the C/Gcorners of your mind
[Chorus]
From the Gsecond time arDmound
The C/Gonly love I Amever found
Oh GAngela it's a Dmlong time cominC/Gg
[Break]
Home Gat laaC/GaaaasEmt
[Verse]
Were you Gsafe and warm in your Dmcoat of arms
With your C/Gfingers in a fist
Did you Ghear the notes, all those Dmstatic codes
In the C/Gradio abyss?
[Chorus II]
GStrangers in this Dmtown,
They C/Graise you up just to Amcut you down
Oh GAngela it's a Dmlong time cominC/GgAm  
Oh GAngela spent your Dmwhole life running C/Gaway
[Break II]
Home Gat laaaC/GaaasEmt
Home Gat laaaC/GaaasEmt
