[F#m] [E]
If he loved you like I love you, I would [C#m] walk away in [C#m] shame.
I'd move [E] town, I'd [E] change my name when he watches you,
When he comes to buy your soul.
On your [C#m] hand, his golden rings, like eagles above that sings.
When [B] we dance, [E]
[A] angels would not [E] dance.
The priest has said my soul's salvation is in the balance of the angels.
[C#m] Up underneath the wheels of passion, [E] I keep the faith for my fashion.
When [B] we dance, [G#m]
angels [A] would not [E] dance.

[E] [C#m]
[E] [F#] If I could break down [C#] these walls and shout my name at heaven's [F#] gate,
I'd tear these hands and I'd [C#] destroy the dark machineries of fate.
[F#] The vehicles are broken, [A] the heavens are [A] over us,
Hell fires a promise away, I'd still be [E] saved.
Still in love, still in love, still [C#m] in love, still [F#] [E]
[C#] in love.
He [F#] won't love you like I love you.
He [D#m] won't care for you this way.
You [F#] missed me to this day, come and live with me.
We'll have children of our own, I [D#m] won't love you more than life.
If [F#] you were born again, my wife, if you were born again,
When [C#] we dance, [F#] angels [B] would not [G#m] dance.
[E] When [C#] we dance, [F#] [B] angels would not [G#m] dance.
I'm gonna try [E] again.
When [C#] we dance, [F#] angels [B] come running [G#m] like wings.
[E] I'm gonna try again.
When [F#] we dance, angels
[D#m] [F#] come running like wings.
[D#m] [C#] [F#]
[D#m] [G#] I'm gonna [F#] [D#m] [C#] fly [F#]
my sky.
