Farewell Angelina

Written by: Bob Dylan & Revised by John Mellencamp

Performed: John Mellencamp

G C G

Farewell Angelina, the bells of the crown

G C G

Being stolen by bandits, I must follow the sound

G C D

Well the triangles tingle, the trumpets plays slow

Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C G C G C G

Say farewell Angelina, the sky is on fire, and I must go

G C G

There?s no need for anger, there's no need for blame

G C G

There?s nothing to prove, Everything?s still the same

G C D

Just the table standing empty by the edge of the sea

Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C G C G C G

Say farewell Angelina, the sky's trembling, and I must leave

G C G

Well the jack and the queen have forsaken the courtyard

G C G

Fifty-two gypsies now file past the guard

G C D

In the space where the deuce and the ace once ran wild

Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C G C G C G

Farewell Angelina, the sky is folding, I'll see you in a while

G C G

See the cross-eyed pirate sit perched in the sun

G C G

Shooting tin cans with a sawed-off shotgun

G C D

And the neighbors clap and cheer with each blast

Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C D C D C D

But farewell Angelina, the sky is changing colour, and I must leave fast

G C G

King Kong little elves in the rooftops they dance

G C G

Valentino-type tangos while the make-up mans hands

G C D

Shut the eyes of the dead not to embarrass anyone

Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C G C G C G

Says Farewell Angelina, the sky is embarrassed, and I must be gone

G C G

Well machine guns roaring, puppets heave rocks

G C G

While the fiends nail time bombs to the hands of clocks

G C D

Call me anything you like, I will never deny it

Em Esus4 Em Esus4 C G C G C G

Farewell Angelina, the sky is erupting, and I must go where it's quiet
