Angel In Lothian Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[F][Am][C][G]
[Dm][Am][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[F]When an angel fell
[Am]somewhere in Lothian
[C]I was only a chi[G]ld but I trust my eye[Dm]s
She burned up like a [Am]comet before me
[C]Before I could even say[G], "Hi"
[F]Saw kingdoms come
and [Am]go in Bernicia
[C]With a space station
[G]rattling above my [Dm]head
And I saw the [Am]dead, I saw the [C]dead[G]

[Verse 2]
[F]Back then, yeah, the doo[Am]r
was always open
[C]I'd come and go, back and for[G]th,
anytime I [Dm]need
But I'm needing it [Am]more now than ever
[C]As I'm fading away[G]
[F]And I claw
at the [Am]door every bad night
[C]But somehow it's blo[G]cked
from the other [Dm]side
Claw 'til my [Am]skin comes apart
[C]Until I feel som[G]ething

[Interlude 1]
[F][Am][C][G]
[Dm][Am][C][G]
[F][Am][C][G]
[Dm][Am][C][G]

[Verse 3]
[F]And I remember
that [Am]pain in my mother
[C]Being helpless and fec[G]kless
and far too [Dm]young
And my brother was [Am]spiraling down
He said, [C]"Kid, it's not me, it's this [G]town"
[F]So I rail against
that [Am]feeling when it comes
[C]I no longer have sol[G]itude
behind that [Dm]door
And I know [Am]drugs that can hold it
[C]You gotta hold it you[G]rself

[Verse 4]
[F]I wish an angel fell
[Am]somewhere in Lothian
[C]She could've fixed all the pro[G]blems
that I cannot [Dm]fix
But one day I might [Am]have kids myself
And [C]hope that I don't fuck 'em up [G]myself

[Solo 1]
Hey
[F][Am][C][G]
[Dm][Am][C][G]
[F]Oh[Am][C][G]
[Dm]Oh[Am][C][G]
[F]Oh[Am][C][G]
[Dm]Oh[Am][C][G]
[F][Am][C][G]
[Dm](And I've been here,
the [Am]door was always [C]open)[G]
