This is a corrected version of my previous attempt at this song.
Gm Eb
You were once my one companion
Cm D
You were all that mattered
Gm Fm
You were once a friend and father
Eb Cm D
Then my world was shattered
G
Wishing you were somehow here again
Am/G D/G
Wishing you were somehow near
C D/C Bm7 Em
Sometimes it seemed if I just dreamed
Bm7 Em D
Somehow you would be here
G
Wishing I could hear your voice again
Am/G D/G
Knowing that I never would
C D/C Bm7 Em
Dreaming of you won't help me to do
Bm7 Em D
All that you dreamed I could
Gm Eb
Passing bells and sculpted angels,
Gm D
Cold and monumental
Gm Fm
Seem for you the wrong companion,
Gm D
You were warm and gentle
G G Am/G D
C D/C
Too many years
Bm7 Em
Fighting back tears
Bm7 Em D
Why can't the past just die!
Eb
Wishing you were somehow here again
Cm/Bb F7
Knowing we must say goodbye
Eb F/Eb
Try to forgive
Dm7 Gm
Teach me to live
Dm7 Gm F7
Give me the strength to try!
Bb
No more memories
F/Bb Eb
No more silent tears
Bb F/Bb Eb F7/Bb
No more gazing across the wasted years
Eb F/Bb Bb
Help me say good bye
Eb F/Bb Bb
Help me say good bye!
Bb F Eb F
Bb F Bb
[[[Christine is on top when there are two lines]]]
Bb F Eb F
Wandering child; so lost, so helpless,
Bb F Bb
Yearning for my guidance.
B F# E FF
Angel or father? Friend or phantom?
B F# B
Who is it there staring?
Have you forgotten your
B F# E F#
Angel, oh, speak. What endless longings
Angel?
B F# B
Echo in this whisper?
Abm E
Too long you've wandered in winter
C#m Eb7
Far from my fathering gaze.
Abm E
Wildly my mind beats against you
You resist
C#m Eb7
Yet my soul obeys.
You your soul obeys
C# Ab F# Ab
Angel of Music I denied you,
Angel of Music you denied me,
C# Ab C#
turning from true beauty
turning from true beauty.
C# Ab F# Ab
Angel of Music my pro---tect-or,
Angel of Music I won't shun you,
C# Ab C#
come to me strange Angel
come to your strange Angel
C#m
I am your Angel of Music; come to me Angel of Music...
