Angels of Fenway by James Taylor
G G
Intro:
Verse:
G C D G C D
86 summers gone by, Bambino put a hex on the Bean
Em A7 Em C D
We were living on a tear and a sigh, in the shadow of the Bronx Machine
G C D G C D
Man, you could feel it smolder, the whole town had an attitude
Em A7 Em C D
Then they get a little chip on the shoulder, say something that's downright rude
G C D G C D
Oh, damn them Yankees, outspending everybody two to one
Em A7 Em C G D
Picking up on the cream of the crop, stealing everyone's favorite son
Chorus:
D A E Bm E Am C D
Angels of Fenway hear our prayers, we have been patient, we have been chastened
Verse:
G C D G C D
Grandmama was a Fenway fan, even after Grandad died
Em A7 Em C D
I still remember her holding my hand, taking me along for the ride
G C D G C D
She was born in 19 18, last year that the Red Sox won
Em A7 Em C D
Back the when they sold the Babe, something that they never shoulda ever have done
Bridge:
One more!
Bm G
Hey Nanna can I have another Coke?
Bm E A A Gbm
Here come the hot dog ma-----n, look at that, his bat just broke
A Gbm
Gee, that's got to kill his hand
Bm G Bm E
Riding out on the Green Line, watching the town go by
A Gbm A D
Nanna made another Red Sox fan, till the day I die
Verse:
G C D G C D
That was back in sixty-five, doesn't seem like a long time ago
Em A7 Em C D
Grandmama keeping hope alive, watch them win in double-o-four
G C D G C D
Oh my God, it was beyond belief, down 3 needing 4 in a row
Em A7 Em C D
Holding on by the skin of our teeth, like a hungry dog on a bone
Chorus:
D A E Bm E Am C D
Angels of Fenway give them peace, they have been patient, Red Sox nation
Last Verse:
G C D G C D
The whole world held it's breath, people got down on their knees
Em A7 Em C D
Waiting for the sudden death, praying to heaven for hell to freeze
G C D G C D
Nanna watched from her hospital bed, she was there till the end of the race
Em A7 Em C D
I couldn't hear the last word she said but she was lying there with a smile on her face
G C D Em C D
Just a little smile on her face
G C D Em C D G
Doesn't seem like long time ago
