Intro: C5 F5 (4x)

      C5             F5
It was a cold and wet December day
          C5             F5
When we touched down at JFK
   C5             F5
Snow was melting on the ground
   C5         F5                  C5       F5
On BLS I heard the sound (of an Angel)

  C5             F5
New York like a Christmas tree
          C5                F5            C5       F5
I said tonight this city belongs to me (Angel)

 F       G          F             C
Soul love this love won't let me go
F     G            C5  F5
So long...Angel of Harlem

(C5 F5)
Birdland on 53, the street sounds like a symphony
We got John Coltrane and a love supreme
Miles and she has to be an Angel

Lady Day got diamond eyes
She sees the truth behind the lies (Angel)

F    G              F            C
Soul love this love won't let me go
F   G                 C5  F5
So long...Angel of Harlem

Ponte:
Am      G   F         Am    G                      F
ooh ooh ooh ooh she sings with heart, heart and soul
G                Am  G      D         Am
yeaahhh  yeah yeah  yeah yeah yeah yeahhhh

(C5  F5)
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
On the side streets and the alleyways
Like a star exploding in the night
Filling up the city with broad daylight
G
An Angel in Devil's shoes
D
Salvation in the blues
C                 F
You never looked like an Angel
F    G                 C5 F5
So long...Angel of Harlem

(C5 F5)
Angel, Angel of Harlem (4x)
