 | Intro |
 x2
 | Verse |
  Angel, won't you call  me?
  Could I be the only?
  Though I am a lost  cause
  Angel, won't you call  me?
  Waiting for  a sweet  breeze,
  read it in the  tea  leaves.
  Saw them crown you  May  Queen;
  heard you sing the  sweetest thing.
 
 | Chorus |
 But  I've been so unbridled
 I  fled in the face of my rival
 when  I felt his breath
 at  the back of my neck
 Angel,  won't you call?
 | Intro | x2 (.k..  | riff  | x4)
 | Verse (same chords as first)|
 So here I am in corduroy
 Catch it in your Polaroid
 Thought it was an off night,
 caught in such a warm light.
 So Angel, won't you call me?
 Could I be the only?
 Though I am a lost cause,
 Angel, won't you call me?

 But  I've been so unbridled

 | |  Chorus |
 But  I've been so unbridled
 I  fled in the face of my rival
 when  I felt his breath
 at  the back of my neck
 Angel,  won't you call?
 
 I hope the timing makes sense - the vertical lines are the start of a measure.
 The last "Angel, won't you call?" is twice as long as the first one. But if
 you've listened to the song, you already know that!
