Song:   Angel Come Home 

written by Carl Wilson/G. Cushing-Murray
performed by the Beach Boys
from "L.A. Light", 1979
transcribed by Peter Eybert 

Intro:

  G  Gj9 G   Gj9 G
  Oo ooo ooo ooo ooo

Verse 1:

  G                     Gj7       D
  Now the puzzle's laid out on my table
      C                 C/E C/D C
  The pieces don't fit
  D7/A        G        D
  I move from chair to chair
           C                       G           C/E
  But that empty one's there where she used to sit

Verse 2:

  G                      Gj7       D
  I'm sitting here going out of my mind
       C               C/E C/D C
  'Cause she's gone away
  D7/A         G         D
  She couldn't wait, now I
      C               
  I'm afraid it's too late

Refrain:

      C               G           D
  I'm waitin' till my angel comes home
            C          G      D
  It's been hell bein' here alone
             C              G           D
  I'll be in heaven when my angel comes home
  D      D6    D    C
  Angel, angel come home
                         D          C
  If you see her tell my angel come home
           D          C
  Oo oo oo angel come home
                         D             C
  If you see her tell my angel to come home


like Verse 1:

  Does she remember 
  That I can't forget
  Does she know I regret
  I never told her how I
  I wanted to hold her
  I just let her go

like Verse 2:

  Lonely nights thinkin'
  It's starting to sink in
  We had a way to go
  We'll grow closer together
  By being apart

Refrain 2:

  C       G           D
  When my angel comes home
            C          G      D  
  It's been hell bein' here alone
      C        G           D  
  God tell me, why has she flown
          C
  So far away
    G              D            C
  I pray she won't stay another day
             G              D           C
  I'll be in heaven when my angel comes home
  G           C
  Please come home

  D      D6     D    C
  Angel, angel, come home
                 G       D      D6    D    C  
  If you see her tell my angel, angel come home...
