 w/harmonica):
 Yeah I said "Momma  he's crazy and he scares  me
 But I want  him by my side
 Though he's wild  and he's bad  and sometimes  just plain mad
 I need  him to keep  me satisfied"
 I said "Papa don't cry cause it's alright
 And I see you in some of his ways
 Though he might not give me the love that you wanted
 I'll love him the rest of my days"
 Misguided  angel hangin over  me
 Heart  like a Gabriel, pure and white  as ivory
 Soul  like a Lucifer,  black and cold  like a piece of lead
 Misguided  angel,  love you till  I'm dead
 I said "Brother speak to me of passion
 You said never to settle for nothin less
 Well it's in the way he walks, it's in the way he talks
 His smile, his anger, and his kisses"
 Yeah I said "Sister don't you understand?
 He's all I ever wanted in a man
 I'm tired of sittin round the t.v. every night
 Hoping I'm finding a Mister Right"
 Misguided angel hangin over me
 Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
 Soul like a Lucifer, black and cold like a piece a lead
 Misguided angel, love you till I'm dead
 He says "Baby  don't listen to what  they say
 There comes  a time when you'll  have to break  away"
 He says "Baby  there are things  we all cling  to all our lives
 It's time  to let them go  and become  my wife"
 Misguided  angel hangin over  me
 Heart  like a Gabriel, pure and white  as ivory
 Soul  like a Lucifer, black and cold  like a piece of lead
  (  capella)
 Misguided angel, love you till I'm dead
 (lame approximation of the mandolin thing at the end)

 Ummm... This is really the first time I've ever done this,
 and all the other standard disclaimers. Oh yeah, also, the

 those. Otherwise, enjoy!
