Power chords work best for this one...

Intro:
G    G    G    G
G    G    G    G
G    C    G    C

Verse:
G                             C                D
Oh Angeline, I love you, your mouth is like a sting
     Em              Bm                C              D
and when I close my eyes each night I often hear you sing
G                               C               D
Imagination's hidden book, you wrote it on the wing
     Em              Bm                C                 D
And when I vowed to comfort you, you swallowed everything.

Chorus:
G          C
Angeline, oh my Angeline
C                  G           Am               D
My sweet Angeline - you have rendered me unseen
Em            C                      D          G     C
I would cry a million smiles for my Indian City queen

Verse:

Well your body it is broken in so many different ways
And when I stoop to find your head, well it disappeared in haze
Your blood flows like the finest wine - the kiss of Burgundy
And where it comes from, no one knows, but where its going I can't see

Chorus:

Angeline, oh my Angeline
My sweet Angeline - you have rendered me unseen
I would cry a million smiles for my Indian City queen

Guitar Solo:

G   C   G   C
G   C   D   Em   Bm   C   D
G   C   D   Em   Bm   C   D

Chorus:

Angeline, oh my Angeline
My sweet Angeline - you have rendered me unseen
I would cry a million smiles for my Indian City queen

Verse:

And your crystal coloured cardboard bins - attack me from the paint
and I think I'm getting lost, among the swollen states
Oh rescue me, or bury me, for I care not what you do
There is one thing that I want to say - well am I really you?

Chorus:

Angeline, oh my Angeline
My sweet Angeline - you have rendered me unseen
I would cry a million smiles for my Indian City queen
