[Verse]
         G#              C#
It was a cold and wet December day
        G#                     C#
When we touched the ground at JFK

Snow was melting on the ground
   G#     C#         
  On BLS I heard the
              G#    C#  G#  C#
sound, of an angel
G#                C#
New York, like a Christmas tree
  G#               
  Tonight this city
   C#            G#     C#  G#  C#
belongs to me, Angel


[Chorus]

So long, angel of Harlem

G#           C#
Birdland on fifty-three
     G#                   C#
The street sounds like a symphony

  We got John Coltrane
       C#
and a love supreme
G#                
  Miles says she's
  C#            G#    C#  G#  C#
got to be an angel

behind the lies, angel

[Verse]
G#                 C#
Blue light on the avenue
G#              C#
God knows they got to you
   G#                C#
An empty glass, the lady sings
G#                   C#
Eyes swollen like a bee sting
G#       C#
Blinded you lost your way
G#                       C#  
Through the side streets

and the alleyway
G#                     C#
Like a star exploding in the night
G#                   
  Falling to the city
    C#
in broad daylight


[Pre-chorus]
   C#
An angel in Devil's shoes
D#
Salvation in the blues
                         C#
You never looked like an angel
