[Intro]
 
C C
 
[Verse 1]
C CYou know the distance never made a difference to me
C CI swam a lake of fire, I'd have walked across the floor of any sea
BmIgnored the vastness between all that can be seen
C N.C.
And all that we believe
 
 
[Chorus]
C CSo I thought you were like an angel to me
 
 
[Verse 2]
C CFunny how true colors shine in darkness and in secrecy
C CIf there were scarlet flags, they washed out in the mind of me
BmWhere a blinding light shone on you every night
C CEither side of my sleep
 
 
[Chorus]
C CWhere you were held frozen like an angel to me
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
C CIt ain't the being alone
 
Sha-la-la
C CIt ain't the empty home, baby
Bm GmYou know I'm good on my own
C CSha-la-la, baby, no, it's more the being unknown
C CSo much of the living, love, is the being unknown
 
 
[Verse 3]
C CYou called me angel for the first time, my heart leapt from me
C CYou smile now, I can see its pieces still stuck in your teeth
BmAnd what's left of it, I listen to it tick
C CEvery tedious beat
 
 
[Chorus]
C CGoing unknown as any angel to me
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
C CIt ain't the being alone
 
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, la, la-la
C CIt ain't the empty home, baby
 
Sha-la-la, la-la-la
Bm GmYou know I'm good on my own
C CSha-la-la, baby, no, it's more the being unknown
C CAnd there are some people, love, who are better unknown
