Blue October – Angel chords

Angel

Intro

EmI'm wishing the bathwater clean
GShe hides in the back and is unseen
BmI take off this mask that surrounds me
F#Look me in the face, what do you see?
EmI feel like a boy the age of 13
GMy body grows up
BmBut my mind stays the same
F#                        F#  F#  F#Look me in the face, what do you see?

VERSE 1

D                  F#How do you tell an angel 
     Bm                    GThat you don't believe in God?
D                          F#Why do I feel like such a stranger
   Bm                                    GI look around, I look around, and all my friends are gone

CHORUS
                 DBut oh would you be me?
                F#Because I would be you
            BmOh you'd be happy
            GOnly if you wanted to
                  DAnd how would you treat me?
                F#Because I would treat you
            BmOh you'd be happy
            GOnly if you wanted to

VERSE 2

How do you tell your Father,
That you want him to notice you?
Why does this seem like such a bother?
When mom says you'd be better off dead
But I want to see you
I still want to see you
Oh would you call me?
Oh it's not hard too
I'm the first one
Oh you gave birth to
And oh would you write me
On my birthday
Graduation, was yesterday
Yesterday
Oh...

VERSE 3

How do you hold the special victim?
When they push you away
When they've been
Raped on the inside
Torn on the outside
The dirt and ugly from the stain that they try to hide
Touched in private places
Embarrassed faces
To scared to ask for help

CHORUS

Oh would you be me?
Because I would be you
Oh you'd be happy
Only if you wanted to
And how would you treat me?
Because I would treat you
You'd be happy
Only if you wanted to

OUTRO (same chords as intro)

I'm wishing the bath water clean
She hides in the back and is unseen
I take off the mask that surrounds me
Look me in the face
What do you see?
