] (x4)
It was a cold and wet December day
When we touched the ground at JFK
Snow was melting on the ground
On BLS I heard the sound, of an angel
New York, like a Christmas tree
Tonight this city belongs to me, Angel
change to a normal F)
Soul love...this love won't let me go
] (x4)
So long...angel of Harlem
Birdland on fifty-three
The street sounds like a symphony
We got John Coltrane and a love supreme
Miles says she's got to be an angel
Lady Day got diamond eyes
She sees the truth behind the lies, Angel
change to a normal F)
(change to normal chords)
Oooh, oooh
.oooh, aaahh aaaaahhh
She says it's heart...heart and soul...
Pause 2-3-4
] x4
Yeah yeah...(yeah)
Blue light on the avenue
God knows they got to you
An empty glass, the lady sings
Eyes swollen like a bee sting
Blinded you lost your way
Through the side streets and the alleyway
Like a star exploding in the night
Falling to the city in broad daylight
(change to normal chords)
An angel in Devil's shoes
Salvation in the blues
You never looked like an angel
] x4
Yeah yeah...angel of Harlem
