Key:
G [VERSE 1]
C As the cafe was closing
D On a warm summer night
C G Cathy was cleaning the spoons
C G Em A The radio played the hit parade
D D7 And I hummed along with the tune
C G She asked me to change the station
C D She said the song just drove her insane
G C But it wasn't the music playing
D G It was me that she was trying to blame [CHORUS]
C G And the sky is black and still now
C D On the hill where the angels sing
C G Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
D G Looks just like a diamond ring
C D G And its far, far from me

[VERSE 2]
C Well, I leaned on my left leg
D In the parking lot dirt
C G Cathy was closing the lights
C G Em A June bug flew from the warmth he once knew
A D D7 And I wished for once I wasn't right
C G Why we used to laugh together
C D And we'd dance to any old song
G C You know, she still laughs with me
D G But she waits just a second to long [CHORUS]
C G The sky is black and still now
C D On the hill where the angels sing
C G Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
D G Looks just like a diamond ring
C D G And its far, far from me [INSTRUMENTAL:]
G C G C
D G C D G [VERSE 3]
C Well, I started the engine
D And I gave it some gas
C G And Cathy was closing her purse
C G Em We hadn't gone far in my beat up old car
A D D7 And I was prepared for the worst
C G "Will you still see me tomorrow?"
C D "No, I've got too much to do"
G C Well, a question ain't really a question
D G When you know the answer too [CHORUS]
C G And the sky is black and still now
C D On the hill where the angels sing
C G Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
D G Looks just like a diamond ring
C D G And its far, far from me
