[Intro]
D A Bm A G A D
A G D
I'm sure you don't remember me Its been a while I know
A G A
You put this tattoo my arm A long long time ago
A D G A D A
The last time I was in your shop She was sitting by my side
D A Bm A G A D
The girl that I called Angel But her love for me has died
[Chorus]
A G D
So, put an eagle over angel Put a teardrop in his eye
A G A A7
And I'll just look the other way And try hard not to cry
D G N.C.
Put an eagle over angel Spread his wings so he can fly
[Instrumental]
D A Bm A G A D
To a place where hearts aren't broken And no one says goodbye
A G D
You put her sweet name on my arm With a tiny heart below
A G A
But it lasted longer than her love Now she's gone for good I know
A D G A
For years I wore my Angel's name Always happy to explain
D A Bm A G A D
But when they ask about her now I just can't stand the pain
