Angeline chords by James Mcmurtry
Guitar chords with lyrics
Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Difficulty: Novice CHORUS: F C G F Angeline, Angeline, darker nights I've never seen Am C G I don't love these East Texas pines F C G Fmaj7 Where I can't find my sleep in the shadows so deep Am C G And dark as the doubts in my mind VERSE 1: Am C G F Slow train on the trestle, going east 'cross the Neches Am C G Like the one I got off of a long time ago F C G Fmaj7 Outside of a little town where I never meant to settle down Am C G Not knowing the seeds I would sow

VERSE 2: Am C G F Barefoot in the autumn weeds, cotton dress hanging to your knees Am C G To the eyes of a stranger you offered a smile Am C G Fmaj7 I went to work in your daddy's fields, didn't seem like such a bad deal Am C G At least it would do for a while VERSE 3: Am C G F We were both young and unabashed, we took what life offered Am C G When the folks were distracted or too tired to care Am C G Fmaj7 With a frost on the land the fates forced our hand Am C G Your dresses fit tighter with spring in the air CHORUS: F C G F Angeline, Angeline, darker nights I've never seen Am C G I don't love these East Texas pines F C G Fmaj7 Where I can't find my sleep in the shadows so deep Am C G And dark as the doubts in my mind VERSE 4: Am C G F Now I watch the trains rattle on from the seat of the tractor Am C G Your daddy's old harness still hangs in the barn Am C G Fmaj7 And your mama don't like it that our children all scattered Am C G She swears it's my blood: it was not meant to farm VERSE 5: Am C G F And you and I don't talk a lot, we really don't have to Am C G We spent many years reading each other's minds Am C G Fmaj7 We used up the lightning, now we don't bother fighting Am C G Such things will happen in time CHORUS: F C G F Angeline, Angeline, darker nights I've never seen Am C G I don't love these East Texas pines F C G Fmaj7 Where I can't find my sleep in the shadows so deep Am C G And dark as the doubts in my mind
