VERSE 1: 
                    D5 
Angel circlin' the heavens 
                             A5 
thoughts drift by on silver clouds 
 
a weathered crack deep in the sidewalk 
                                A5 
from too much hustle, too much crowd 
                                 D5 
there's too much time left on my hands 
                                  G5 
there's too much heartache in my soul 
                                      D5       
there's too much hangin' round this pay-phone 
 A5                          D5 
there's too much loss of self-control 
 
Refr?o -------------
                               G5 
and i guess your love is like nails 
             D5 
so you can crucify me 
                        A5 
and lay down upon your rails 
                             D5 
so you could locomotive over me 
                          G5 
yeah you stone me when i stumble 
                             D5 
and thorns are woven in your talk 
  
and i come with you as always 
         A5                   G5 
down the via dolorosa when i walk 
   G5 
i walk

VERSE 2: 
                                 D5 
my demons come around with the sundown 
                                    A5 
and they dance their circles in my head 
 
and how they twirl your memory all around 
                             A5 
and lay you down on burning beds 
 
i pity you my saving angel 
                        G5 
i wish i may, i wish i might 
                                  D5 
have you saved your last prayer for me 
A5                      D5 
wherever god has you tonight 
 
(chorus)
