D5                E5                 A5
There'll be no strings to bind your hands,
           G5          A5         D5    E5    F#5   G5    A5
Not if my love can't bind your heart.
D5               E5            A5
And there's no need to take a stand,
           G5      A5       D5     E5    F#5   G5    A5
For it was I who chose to start.
E5                        A5    A5   A5
I see no need to take me home;
E5                         A5
I'm old enough to face the dawn.

Refrain:
D5             B5         A5       G5     A5
Just call me angel of the morning, An - gel,
D5             B5              A5        G5    A5
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, ba - by.
D5            B5          A5       G5    A5
Just call me angel of the morning, An - gel,
G5     G5   E5       G5     D5  E5  F#5  G5  A5    D5  E5  A5   G5    A5
Then slowly turn away    from me.


D5          E5                A5               
Maybe the sun's light will be dim 
             G5      A5        D5    E5   F#5   G5    A5
And it won't matter an - y - how.
D5             E5             A5
If morning's echo says we've sinned... 
              G5     A5      D5    E5  F#5   G5    A5
Well, it was what I wanted now.
E5                              A5   E5                     A5
And if we're the victims of the night, I won't be blinded by light.
