Cool song. Played  in  dropped-D  tuning  (low  to  high  DADGBE), and
without a solo, unlike Jeff Healey's version. Enjoy! Corrections blah,
blah...

ANGEL EYES - John Hiatt
-----------------------

 x2 (see below)

D             D/F#    G            A
 Girl, you're looking fine tonight
D          D/F#            G            A
 And every fella's got you in his sights
G            D            Em           D/F#
 What you're doing with a clown like me
G          D/F#                E
 Is surely one of life's little mysteries

    D            D/F# G           A
 So tonight I'll ask   the stars above
D        D/F#   G        A
 How did I ever win your love?
G           D/F# F#(/A#)        Bm   A
 What did I do,      what did I say
G        D          A       D
 To turn your angel eyes my way?



And I'm the guy who never learned to dance
I never even got one second glance
Across the crowded room, that was close enough
I could look, but I could never touch

So tonight I'll ask...

              G/D  D     Em        Bm
Don't anybody wake me if this is a dream
                  G/D  D                 Bm
'Cause she is the best thing that's ever happened to me
        G/D D              Em           Bm
All you fellas you can but look all you like
         Em                  D/F#   G          A
But this girl you see, she's leaving with me tonight

 x2

And there's just one more thing I need to know
If this is love then why does it scare me so
Must be something only you can see
But girl, I feel it when you look at me

So tonight I'll ask...

What did I do, what did I say
To turn your angel eyes my way?
