D-DU-UDU
 D-A-Bm-G---D-A-Bm-A-G--
 You'll be forever an angel
 in a sun  dress blowing  in the sweet  September  wind
 At least that's how I choose  to remember
 and in  my heart you'll never  love again
 maybe it's  too late to regain  sight of all that we have lost
 got to hold  on to this moment
 don't let go  maybe it's too late for redemption  now
 I see a blanket of pale  white snow
 on the street  side  from this doll  house full of open  words
 and the stained  glass of the church  next door
 casts it's vile  upon this empty  room
 your eyes that used to shine  as bright as open lights without
 but we're meant  to be loved  it's the greatest heritage
 I can never  make you love  me again
 but when all else fails it fails
 did I fail you?  will  you fail  me too?
 because there's nothing  that I wouldn't  do to hold  on to you
 but you give  me nothing to hold  on to
 maybe it's  too late to keep the one  out from giving up tonight
 I guess it's too  late for forgiveness  God forgive me!
 I guess it's too  late for a family  now
 everything reminds me of  you
 everything reminds me  of you
 you're an angel  in a sun  dress
 and my heart  will never love  again...
