Askil Holm - Where the angels sleep 

(capo on fourth fret)


[Verse 1]

Em7          D                Cadd9   G
She was 15 seconds from the angel´s face

    Em7      D            Cadd9     G
bet too many dollars on a bad horse race

        Em7          D          Cadd9   G
she had bright red lips under teenage eyes

    Em7     D              Cadd9 G
and all she wanted was the butterflies

    Cadd9
The cold in her heart


[Verse 2]

Em7               D               Cadd9     G
Her friends all scattered, like windswept leaves

          Em7   D            Cadd9    G
there was noone there to fullfill her needs

       Em7           D         Cadd9    G
In the fountain of youth she dove too deep

    Em7         D                Cadd9  G
She dove to the bottom where the angels sleep

    Cadd9
The cold in her heart


[Chorus]

                        G
Cause the sun could not warm

     D           Em7
The cold in her heart

     Cadd9         G
or drive away the storm

      D          Em7
That drove them apart

     Cadd9          G
And here comes the rain

        D           Em7
All she wants is to weep

      Cadd9             G
Cause he has found his peace

          D       Cadd9
Where the angels sleep


[Verse 3]


Got lost without her boyfriend´s love
Held by an iron hand in a velvet glove
She stayed with him throughout the night
He never woke up from his final fight

The cold in her heart

[Chorus]

Cause the sun could not warm
The cold in her heart
or drive away the storm
That drove them apart

And here comes the rain
All she wants is to weep
Cause he has found his peace
Where the angels sleep

[Bridge]

D
She is dreaming of a life without the fights and all the pain

Cadd9
It Doesn´t have to be this way, It Doesn´t have to be this way

A7sus4                               Em7
Another chapter in the book of life, "i see your hardened chain?"
F
She wants to break away, she wants to break away

G          D                Cadd9   G
She was 15 seconds from the angel´s face

Em7          D                Cadd9 G
bet too many dollars on a bad horse race

    Cadd9
The cold in her heart


Cause the sun could not warm
The cold in her heart
or drive away the storm
That drove them apart

And here comes the rain
All she wants is to weep
Cause he has found his peace
Where the angels sleep
Where the angels sleep
