Farewell Angelina
F C
The bells of the crown
F C
Are being stolen by bandits
F C
I must follow the sound
The triangle tingles
F G
And the trumpet play slow
Am Em
Farewell Angelina
Am Em
The sky is on fire
F C
And I must go.
C
Thereʼs no need for anger
F C
Thereʼs no need for blame
F C
Thereʼs nothing to prove
F C
Evʼrythingʼs still the same
Just a table standing empty
F G
By the edge of the sea
Am Em
Farewell Angelina
Am Em
The sky is trembling
F C
And I must leave.
C
The jacks and queens
F C
Have forsaken the courtyard
F C
Fifty-two gypsies
F C
Now file past the guards
In the space where the deuce
F G
And the ace once ran wild
Am Em
Farewell Angelina
Am Em
The sky is folding
F C
Iʼll see you in a while.
C
See the cross-eyed pirates sitting
F C
Perched in the sun
Shooting tin cans
F C
With a sawed-off shotgun
And the neighbors they clap
F G
And they cheer with each blast
Am Em
Farewell Angelina
Am Em
The skyʼs changing color
F C
And I must leave fast.
C
King Kong, little elves
F C
On the rooftops they dance
Valentino-type tangos
F C
While the make-up manʼs hands
Shut the eyes of the dead
F G
Not to embarrass anyone
Am Em
Farewell Angelina
Am Em
The sky is embarrassed
F C
And I must be gone.
C
The machine guns are roaring
F C
The puppets heave rocks
The fiends nail time bombs
F C
To the hands of the clocks
Call me any name you like
F G
I will never deny it
Am Em
Farewell Angelina
Am Em
The sky is erupting
F C
I must go where itʼs quiet.
