Looking For Angeline

Lyrics and Chords

D

I pulled on my wintercoat and I ran into the falling snow

D                                                                                             A7                          A

My mind was blank, my eyes were blind, I didn’t know where I would go

D                                                                                            G

But I knew that letter she sent to me was a pack of lies
Or so it seemed..

D                                                  A7               A

Now, I’m still running, looking for Angeline

D

I parked my Oldsmobile outside a cracked, one-eyed motel

D                                                                   A7                        A

Where everyone in town is on the way to somewhere else

D

I was scared, when I thought to myself,

G

“Have the last two years just been a dream?”

D                                           A7               A

I’m still running, looking for Angeline

F                                      G                         D

I bathed in shallow, wishing waters

F                                      G

Till I was caught in a riptide

D

Tangled up in the chains of old mines and driftwood

F                                      G                                     D

I saw the light like a solitary star and reached for it

F13

But I was to be drawn deeper

A7               A

Drawn deeper

C       G                   D

D

When I came back I’d no idea how long I had been gone

D                                                                                      A7                           A

Things you lose are never really lost, battles never really won

D

I look at all these war-worn, sad-eyed men

G

And I know I’m no worse off than them

D                                        A                   A7             D

We’re all out there, looking for Angeline

Lyrics

I pulled on my wintercoat and I ran into the falling snow
My mind was blank, my eyes were blind, I didn’t know where I would go
But I knew that letter she sent to me was a pack of lies
Or so it seemed..
Now, I’m still running, looking for Angeline

I parked my Oldsmobile outside a cracked, one-eyed motel
Where everyone in town is on the way to somewhere else
I was scared, when I thought to myself,
“Have the last two years just been a dream?”
I’m still running, looking for Angeline

I bathed in shallow, wishing waters
Till I was caught in a riptide
Tangled up in the chains of old mines and driftwood
I saw the light like a solitary star and reached for it
But I was to be drawn deeper
Drawn deeper

Looking for Angeline

When I came back I’d no idea how long I had been gone
Things you lose are never really lost, battles never really won
I look at all these war-worn, sad-eyed men
And I know I’m no worse off than them
We’re all out there, looking for Angeline

Looking for Angeline
