Key:
G C G Farewell Angelina, the bells of the crown
G C G Being stolen by bandits, I must follow the sound
G C D Well the triangles tingle, the trumpets plays slow
Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C G C G C G Say farewell Angelina, the sky is on fire, and I must go
G C G There?s no need for anger, there's no need for blame
G C G There?s nothing to prove, Everything?s still the same
G C D Just the table standing empty by the edge of the sea
Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C G C G C G Say farewell Angelina, the sky's trembling, and I must leave
Continues after the ad
G C G Well the jack and the queen have forsaken the courtyard
G C G Fifty-two gypsies now file past the guard
G C D In the space where the deuce and the ace once ran wild
Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C G C G C G Farewell Angelina, the sky is folding, I'll see you in a while
G C G See the cross-eyed pirate sit perched in the sun
G C G Shooting tin cans with a sawed-off shotgun
G C D And the neighbors clap and cheer with each blast
Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C D C D C D But farewell Angelina, the sky is changing colour, and I must leave fast
G C G King Kong little elves in the rooftops they dance
G C G Valentino-type tangos while the make-up mans hands
G C D Shut the eyes of the dead not to embarrass anyone
Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C G C G C G Says Farewell Angelina, the sky is embarrassed, and I must be gone
G C G Well machine guns roaring, puppets heave rocks
G C G While the fiends nail time bombs to the hands of clocks
G C D Call me anything you like, I will never deny it
Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C G C G C G Farewell Angelina, the sky is erupting, and I must go where it's quiet
