Intro: D A Em G 2x
-VERSE 1----------------------------------------------------
D A
We were standing in an empty room
Em G
The moonlight was falling
D A Em G
You were holding my hand when the car pulled up for you
D A
And I could have spent a life with you
Em G
But those days were over
D A Em G
You were calling my name when your face faded from view
Em G D A
And wasn't it you who told me the sun would always chase the day
Em G
And wasn't it you who told me:
------------------------------------------------------------
-Chorus-----------------------------------------------------
D A Em G
Angels fly in the air tonight
D A Em G
Saying wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake?
D A Em G
And stars collide and the air's alive
D A Em
Or was it just like those promises that you made
G D
On our last night?
------------------------------------------------------------
-VERSE 2----------------------------------------------------
D A
I remember waking up with you
Em G
The days doing nothing
D A Em G
You meant more to me then than I think you ever knew.
D A
But you were gonna be a doctor, movie star
Em G
A poet at a Nobel seminar
D A Em G
I hope the world never tore that out of you
Cause wasn't it you who told me the sun would always chase the day
Yeah wasn't it you who told me:
------------------------------------------------------------
-Chorus-----------------------------------------------------
D A Em G
Angels fly in the air tonight
D A Em G
Saying wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake?
D A Em G
And stars collide and the air's alive
D A Em
Or was it just like those promises that you made
G D
On our last night?

-BRIDGE-----------------------------------------------------
Em G
And what ever happened to the things you loved
D A
And the songs we played, and the indian days
Em G D
Whatever happened to the things you gave away?
A Em G D
Like Harold and Maude singing
A Em G D
Like Harold and Maude singing
A Em G D
A Em G D

I was waving as you drove away
Em G
The sunlight was falling
D A Em
You were writing backwards in a dusty window pane
------------------------------------------------------------
-Chorus-----------------------------------------------------
D A Em G
Angels fly in the air tonight
D A Em G
Saying wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake?
D A Em G
And stars collide and the air's alive
D A Em
Or was it just like those promises that you made
G D A Em
On our last night?
G D A Em
On our last night?
G D A Em
On our last night?
