            E 
We met in a bar 
                  B 
Out on Chesapeake Bay 
                      C#m 
With her white patent boots 
                    A 
And her blouse red lame 
              E 
A table top dancer 
                   B 
She would smile on cue 
                 C#m   A 
Those lips of an angel 
          E 
Angel in blue 
                        E 
She's been dancing for ages 
                  B 
Though cities of bars 
                    C#m 
She was kickin' the habit 
               A 
of scoring in cars 
                           E 
She'd been drained of her spirit 
                   B 
All caged in this zoo 
           C#m  A 
A wildcat angel 
          E 
Angel in blue 
C#m                           B 
  And as she stared out into nowhere 
C#m                                                B 
  I thought,yes,I thought she might break down and cry 
         G#m                        A  
When I whispered I thought I could love her 
                E                          B 
She just said "Baby, don't even bother to try" 
                      E 
And I watched as she spoke 
                      B 
Her words chilled my bones 
                         C#m 
All her friends did her favors 
                       A 
That were really just loans 
               E 
And she never had dreams 
                    B 
So they never came true 
               C#m   A 
The palest of angels 
          E 
Angel in blue 
                            E 
And the bees they had stung her 
               B 
The birds they had flown 
                           C#m 
There were guys she could number 
                  A 
But none she had known 
                   E   
And she never had dreams 
                    B 
So they never came true 
              C#m  A 
My fade away angel 
          E   C#m  E  
Angel in blue
