[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
An[C]geline, [D]Angeline,
darker [C]nights I've never [Em]seen
I [C]don't love these [D]East
Texas [Em]pines
Where I can[C]'t find my [D]sleep
In the [C]shadows so [Em]deep
Dark as the doubts in my
[D]mind[Dsus4][D]
Slow [Em]train on the [C]trestle,
going [D]east across the [C]niches.
[G]But the one[Em] I got off [G]of
a [D]long time [C]ago,
out[Em]side of [G]a little town
I [D]never meant to settle [C]down,
not [Em]knowing the seeds I
would [D]sow.
[Em]Barefoot in the [C]autumn weeds,
a [D]cotton dress hanging to [C]your knees
the [Em]arms of a [G]stranger
you [D]offered a [C]smile
I [Em]went to work in your [G]daddy's field
didn't [D]seem like such [C]a bad deal
at [Em]least it would do for a [D]while[Dsus4][D]
we [Em]were both young and [C]unabashed
we [D]took a life of[C]fer
Some [Em]folks were distrac[G]ted
or [D]too tired to [C]care
[Em]Frost on the [G]land and
[D]faithful star [C]hand
[Em]Dresses fit tighter in the [D]spring air
An[G]geline, [C]Angel[D]ine,
darker [C]nights I've never [Em]seen
I [C]don't love these [D]East Texas [Em]pines
Where I can[C]'t find my [D]sleep,
and the [C]shadows so [Em]deep
Dark as the doubts in my
[D]mind[Dsus4][D]
So I [Em]watch the trains [G]rattle past
in the [D]seat of a tract[C]or
[Em]Daddy's old har[G]ness,
it still [D]hangs in [C]the bar
[Em]Mama don't [G]like it,
how our [D]children are [C]scattered
She [Em]says it's my blood,
I [D]was not [Em]meant to [D]farm
I [Em]know that I don't talk [G]a lot,
we [D]don't really have [C]to
We spent [Em]our whole l[G]ives
reading [D]each other's [C]minds
We [G]used [Em]up the light[G]nin',
now we [D]don't bother [C]fightin'
[Em]Such things will happen in [D]time[Asus4]
[Am]Ange[C]line, Angeli[D]ne, darlin',
[C]that's how I've never [Em]sang
I [C]don't love the easi[D]est
Texas [Em]pies
Where I can[C]'t find my [D]sleep
in the [C]shadows so [Em]deep
[Am]Dark[Em] as the doubts in
my [D]mind[Em]
Thank you, Sir James McMurtry song.
