TEEN ANGEL
written by J. and R. Surrey
performed by Mark Dinning
transcribed by Collins Crapo 


(play opening line, verses, and closing line slowly; chorus slightly
   faster)

C            Am            F            G   G7
 Teen angel,   teen angel,  teen angel,  ooo--

C                    F
 That fateful night,  the car was stalled
C                  F
 Upon the railroad track
  C                  F
I pulled you out and we were safe
    G        G7      C
But you went running back

Chorus:
           G
Teen angel, can you hear me?
           C
Teen angel, can you see me?
                  F
Are you somewhere up above?
    G    G7         C
And am I still your own true love?

Verse 2:
What was it you were looking for
That took your life that night?
They say they found my high school ring
Clutched in your fingers tight

(chorus)

Verse 3:
Just sweet 16, and now you're gone
They've taken you away
I'll never kiss your lips again
They buried you today

(chorus)
                          (decelerate....)
C            Am            F      G7  C
 Teen angel,   teen angel, answer me, please
