[Intro]
C#m Am E  C#m Am E
[Verse 1]
C#mTake a seat next to Ame
Let me tell you a Estory that I think you might want to hear
C#mTell me about low tides, Atell me about the glory
EOf the vessel that you used to steer
C#mOf the gunfights, Aof the limelight
EShe's got a feeling no it just don't seem right
C#mOf the shipwrecked, Aof your best bets
EKeep talking I can hear just fine
[Pre-chorus]
BDo you believe in angels, darling?
AI saw one in a Edream (just the other night)
BAnd if these walls could talk
AYou know we'd live Bforever
[Chorus]
ESo take a chance on me
BThat your memory will never fade
C#mAnd with your heart like a lion, open the door
AAs your years start to turn into days
EAnd as the years go by
BAnd these days they turn into nights
C#mWith your heart like a lion, open the door
ACome on, let's go for a rideB  
[Link]
C#m A E   C#m A E
[Verse 2]
C#mSee there's a first and a Alast time for everything
EI wish I knew it then, I wouldn't have to choose
C#mI wanna know what Ahappened to the wedding ring
EI want to see the moment that it came loose
C#mHow you caught her
AClose to the water
E(She swears she knows you never took this long to call)
C#mAbout the bedside, Aabout your daughter
EAbout the trees across from the wall
[Pre-chorus]
BDo you believe in angels, darling?
AI saw one in a Edream (just the other night)
BAnd if these walls could talk
AYou know we'd live Bforever
[Chorus]
ESo take a chance on me
BThat your memory will never fade
C#mAnd with your heart like a lion, open the door
AAs your years start to turn into days
EAnd as the years go by
BAnd these days they turn into nights
C#mWith your heart like a lion, open the door
ACome on, let's go for a rideB
