Angels Fall First chords

[Em]An angelface smiles to [G]me
Under a [D]headline of tragedy[Em]
That smile used to give me [G]war[D]mth
[Em]Farewell - no words to [G]say
Beside the [D]cross on your [Em]grave
And those forever burning [G]can[D]dles

[Em]Needed else[C]where
To [D]remind us of the [Am]shortness of your [Em]time
Tears laid for [C]them [D]
Tears of [Am]love tears of [F]fear
[C]Bury my dreams [G]dig up my sorrows
[Am]Oh, Lord [F]why
The [C]angels fall [G]first?

[Em]Not relieved by thoughts of [G]Shangri-[D]La
[Em]Nor enlightened by the [G]lessons of [E7]Christ
[Em]I'll never understand the [G]meaning of the [D]right
[Em]Ignorance lead me [G]into the [E7]light

[Em]Needed else[C]where
To [D]remind us of the [Am]shortness of your [Em]time
Tears laid for [C]them [D]

[C]Bury my dreams [G]dig up my sorrows
[Am]Oh, Lord [F]why
The [C]angels fall [G]first?

[Am]Sing me a [Em]song
Of your [Dm]beauty
Of your [Am]kingdom
Let the melodies[Em] of your har[Dm]ps
Caress those whom we [Am]still need

Yesterday [Em]we shook han[Dm]ds
My [Am]friend
Today a moon[Em]beam lightens my [Dm]path
My [Am]guardian
