[Intro 1]
[G][D][Bm][D][G][D][Bm][D][Bm][D]
[Em][D][Bm][D]

[Verse 1]
[Bm]There[G][D]
[G]are[Bm] no a[G]ng[D]els [Bm]left[D] in America anymore
They left after the second World
War heading west
Stopping briefly in Japan during the '60s
In Tienanman Square,
during the last decade

[Verse 2]
They kept heading [D]west to who
knows [A]where[D]
What're they after?
What're they looking [A]for?[D]
A Messiah who never [G]comes?[D]
A virgin birth?
A per[Em]fect [G]drunk?[Bm][A]
[D]A sign,
Any kind [Bm]of sign[A][D]
Anything [Bm]that looks [D]slightly
out of the or[A]dinary[Bm][D]

[Verse 3]
Flying [A]over fields [D]& factories
[F]Momma's [D]goin' off her head
Daddy's bringin' home the bacon
Open up [Gm]the pearly gates

[Verse 4]
[Gm]Fruit of salty [D]lubrica[Gm]tion
[D]Tangled up in arms & legs
I can barely touch the bottom
Now I'm workin' [A]up a sweat!
[D]I'm

[Verse 5]
[Bm]ready [A]now[D]--
I'm [A]ready [D]now--

[Verse 6]
[D]
I can [Em]barely touch [D]my own self
How could I touch someone else?
I'm just an advertisement
For a version of myself

[Verse 7]
Like [D]molecules in constant motion
Like a million nervous tics
I am quivering [G]with anticipation[A]
[D]Like the sunlight on their wings
I'm [A]ready [D]now
[Bm](Don't look back[A])
[D]I'm [A]ready [D]now
[Bm](I'm ready for this)
[D]I'm [A]ready [D]now
[Bm][D]

[Verse 8]
[Gm]
The sensuous world ? the smell
of [D]the sea[Gm]
[F]The sweat off their wings ? the fruit from
[D]the trees
The angel [Gm]inside [D]? will mee[Gm]t me to [D]nig[A]ht
[D]On wings of [Gm]desi[D]re ? I come back
[A]alive[D][Gm][D][Gm]
[D][A][D]
I'm [A]ready
[D]I'm [A]ready[D]
(I put the dogs outside)
I'm [Em]ready[D][A]
[D]I'm [A]ready[D]
(To take that ride)
I'm [A]ready [D]now
I'm [A]ready [D]now

[Verse 9]
(To take that wine)
[D]I'm [A]ready [D]now
But [A]where are [D]you?
