Verse:
G C D
Oh Angeline, I love you, your mouth is like a sting
Em Bm C D
and when I close my eyes each night I often hear you sing
G C D
Imagination's hidden book, you wrote it on the wing
Em Bm C D
And when I vowed to comfort you, you swallowed everything.

Angeline, oh my Angeline

My sweet Angeline - you have rendered me unseen
Em C D G C
I would cry a million smiles for my Indian City queen
Verse:
Well your body it is broken in so many different ways
And when I stoop to find your head, well it disappeared in haze
Your blood flows like the finest wine - the kiss of Burgundy
And where it comes from, no one knows, but where its going I can't see
Chorus:
Angeline, oh my Angeline
My sweet Angeline - you have rendered me unseen
I would cry a million smiles for my Indian City queen

Verse:
And your crystal coloured cardboard bins - attack me from the paint
and I think I'm getting lost, among the swollen states
Oh rescue me, or bury me, for I care not what you do
There is one thing that I want to say - well am I really you?
Chorus:
Angeline, oh my Angeline
My sweet Angeline - you have rendered me unseen
I would cry a million smiles for my Indian City queen
Andrew Jones. 2000.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official MOTT THE HOOPLE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
