Em G
An angelface smiles to me
D Em
Under a headline of tragedy
G B
That smile used to give me warmth
Em G
Farewell - no words to say
D Em
Beside the cross on your grave
G B
And those forever burning candles
Em C
Needed elsewhere
D Am Em
To remind us of the shortness of our time
Em C
Tears laid for them
D Am F
Tears of love, tears of fear
C G
Bury my dreams, dig up my sorrows
Am F
Oh, Lord why
C G
The angels fall first
Em G D
Not relieved by thougts of Shangri-La
Em G B
Nor enlightened by lessons of Christ
Em G D
I'll never understand the meaning of the right
Em G B
Ignorance lead me into the light
Em C
Needed elsewhere
D Am Em
To remind us of the shortness of our time
Em C
Tears laid for them
D Am F
Tears of love, tears of fear
C G
Bury my dreams, dig up my sorrows
Am F
Oh, Lord why
C G
The angels fall first
Am Em Dm Am
Sing me a song of your beauty, of your Kingdom
Am Em Dm Am
Let the melodies of your harps caress those whom we still need
Am Em Dm Am
Yesterday we shook hands, my friend
Am Em Dm Am
Today a moonbeam lightens my path, my guardian
Shhh...
