Song: Like The Angel
Artist: Rise Against
Tabbed By: OverUnderOnward

Capo 1

This is actually a fun little song to do acoustically.  I tend to strum the chords 
except for the third verse where I pick individual strings.  For anyone who can 
read blocked chords, the rhythm goes like this (Chords relative to capo):

Verse:
|Am|G|C|Csus4|C|C#m|Am|
Chorus:
|C|C|C|Am / G|Fm|G|Am|Am|Fm|G|Am|Am|Fm|G|Am|

For people who can't, here they are in relation to lyrics:

Am            G
They turn the lights down low,
C          Csus4               C
In shadows hiding from the world,
            C#m              Am
Only coming out when it gets cold

Am                      G
The seas part when they hit the floor,
C                Csus4            C
The voices carry on and out the door
                  C#m              Am
And everything you touch turns into gold

         C                             Am      G
Like the angel you are you laugh cre - at - ing
    Fm      G     Am
A lightness in my chest,
               Fm   G         
Your eyes they penetrate me,
Am
(your answer's always 'maybe')
            Fm    G       Am
That's when I got up and left

Am                    G
A beating heart and a microphone,
C                      Csus4
A ticking clock in an empty home
      C               C#m           Am
Still tells of these times so long ago,


Even though I've come so far, 
C            Csus4            C
I know I've got so far to go 
         C#m          Am
And any day now I'll explode

         C                             Am      G
Like the angel you are you laugh cre - at - ing
    Fm      G     Am
A lightness in my chest,
               Fm   G         
Your eyes they penetrate me,
Am
(your answer's always 'maybe')
            Fm    G       Am
That's when I got up and left

Am           G        C           Csus4
And each and everyday will lead into tomorrow
C                   C#m              Am
Tomorrow brings one less day without you
Am                               G
But don't wait up just leave the light on
C                         Csus4  
'Cause all the roads that I might take
C                C#m           Am
Will all one day lead back to you

         C                             Am      G
Like the angel you are you laugh cre - at - ing
    Fm      G     Am
A lightness in my chest,
               Fm   G         
Your eyes they penetrate me,
Am
(never cease to amaze me)
            Fm    G       Am
That's when I got up and left
