Dm Each night I meant to say I missed her through the day CDm But I'd forget it I never said it I'd pass the flower shop Lord knows I meant to stop CDm But I'd say tomorrow perhaps tomorrow
Gm Tomorrow there'd be time AmDm There'd always be another spring Gm Time to make her laughter ring AA7 Time to give her everything
Chorus: DGAD For my Angelica, my Angelica G There's so much you never knew F#mGF#mG So much I always meant to say and do for you, for you DCBbA7Dm Angelica
And then the cold winds came and when I spoke her name And held her near me she couldn't hear me The shadow had been cast, too many springs had passed For Angelica sweet Angelica
Now in my silent room I tend the flowers that I'd buy As they slowly fade and die Watered by the tears I cry
