Shawn Colvin - Cry like an angel

^CThe streets of my town are not what they ^Fwere They are haloed in ^Canger, ^Fbitter and hurt And it's ^Cnot so you'd notice but it's a sinister ^Fthing ^FLike the wheels of ambi^Ction at the ^Fchristeni^Cng ^{F C}So I went out walking on the streets of the ^Fdead With a chip on my ^Cshoulder And a ^Fvoice in my h^Gead It s^Caid you have been brought here Though you don't know what ^Ffor Well the mystery ^Ctrain is coming ^Fright to your door

And I hear you ^Gcal^C/Gling, you don't have to ^Gcall so ^C/Gloud I see you ^Gfall^C/Ging and you don't have to ^Gwalk so ^Fproud You can ^C/Grun all night but we can take you w^Fhere You can ^Ccry like an angel ^{F C F}

^CThere were high school night dances When we played stump the ^Fband We were raising each ^Cother ^Fin a strange ^Gland There were ^Amhard pills to swallow But we drank 'em all ^Fdown Oh the nights were too ^Cshort then And now they're a ^Flittle too long

I hear you ^Gcalli^C/Gng and you don't have to ^Gcall so ^C/Gloud I see you ^Gfallin^C/Gg and you don't have to ^Gwalk so ^Fproud You can ^C/Grun all night but we can take you w^Fhere You can ^Cshout out in anger

You can cry like an angel ^F [Instrumental] G Dm Am F G Dm F G

So l^Cook homeward baby Keep your eyes on the ^Fsky They will never for^Cgive you So d^Fon't ask them to ^Gtry ^CThis is your party, I know it's not your ^Fideal May we all find sa^Clvation In ^Fprofessions that heal

I hear you ^C/Gcalling, you don't have to ^Bbcall so loud I see you ^C/Gfalling and you don't have to ^Gwalk so ^Fproud You can ^C/Grun all night but we can take you w^Fhere You can ^Cshout out an answer

We'll be ^Glistening to ^C/Gyou You can sing ^Challelujah

You can cry like angel ^Fwhen there are no words ^{C F}
