Bb F C F
[Verse 1]
F
He was a bouncer in a joint called Tony's Body Shop
Bb
She was a night cashier down at the Stop 'n' Shop
F
He was kinda good lookin, and she was kinda fun
C
They met 'neath that big oak tree
F
Out where the river runs
[Chorus]
Bb
Little Angelyne, Little Angelyne
F
As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines
C
Back of a Greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
F
Just Big Bill and Little Angelyne
[Verse 2]
F
She was just in from Texas, didn't know her way around
Bb
So he took her to a roadhouse on the edge of town
F
In the beer hall light she looked so fine
C
And so he popped the question that was on his mind
F
It was a simple affair, only a friend or two
Bb
Preacher asked if they did, they said they do
F
She bought two tickets with her daddy's American Express
C F
And hopped a Greyhound bus in her wedding dress
[Chorus]
Bb
Little Angelyne, Little Angelyne
F
As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines
C
Back of a Greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
F
Just Big Bill and Little Angelyne
[Instrumental]
Bb F C F
Bb F C F
[Verse 3]
F
In a six dollar motel with the honey bun
Bb
With seven glorious days in the Nevada sun
F
He played the tables, she pumped the slots full of dimes
C
They came back broke but they had a good time
F
Now many fell apart in the years come and gone
Bb
But Big Bill and Little Angel they'd last on and on
F
They held together when the times grew thin
C F
A little boy that looked like her, and a girl that looked like him
[Chorus]
Bb
So mister don't you pay it no mind
F
If the sun goes down and the moonlight shines
C
Back of a Greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
F
It’s Big Bill and Little Angelyne
[Outro]
Bb
Little Angelyne, Little Angelyne
F
As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines
C
Back of a Greyhound bus sat two lovers entwined
F
Big, Big Bill and Little Angelyne - repeat and fade
