D#m G# B
Slipping sideways, silver stars collide
D#m G# B
And fade away just like our love that died
G#m A#m B F E
And there is nowhere in this universe to hide from you toniiiight
D#m G# B
I've wrestled with angels all my life
D#m G# B
It's always the halos and the wings that keep you blind
G#m A#m
And if I'd fought with all the strength I held inside
B G#m
I wouldn't be out here alone tonight
D#m
I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
F#m
I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
D#m
I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
F#m
I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
[Chorus]
D#m C# G#m
Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking.
B C# B
The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking
D#m C# G#m
Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking.
B C# G#m
The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking
[Verse 2]
D#m G# B
I’ve been crossing out the words I left unsaid
D#m G# B
From the epilog flying in my head
G#m A#m
Where there is poetry and tragedy unread
B F E
Until toniiiiight
D#m G# B
There’s no other angel, quite like you
D#m
They broke the mold a thousand pieces
G# B
I see through
G#m A#m
Though I tried to realign them, like I do
B
You went your own way
G#m
And I did to
A#
So here I am
[Chorus]
D#m C# G#m
Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking.
B C# B
The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking
D#m C# G#m
Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking.
B C# G#m
The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking
