FAREWELL ANGELINA
DYLAN, BOB

           /C       /C7       /F           /C
    1. Farewell Angelina, the bells of the crown
                 /Am       /Em             /F         /C
       Are being stolen by bandits, I must follow the sound
           /C       /C7             /F            /G
       The triangle tingles and the trumpets play slow
           /Am      /Em       /Am       /Em  /F         /G
       Farewell Angelina, the sky is on fire and I must go
   
    2. There's no need for anger, there's no need for blame
       There's nothing to prove, everything's still the same
       Just a table standing empty by the edge of the sea
       Means farewell Angelina, the sky is trembling and I must leave  
    
    3. The jacks and the queens have forsaked the courtyard
       52 gipsies now file past the guards
       In the space were the deuce and the ace once ran wild
       Farewell Angelina, the sky is falling, I'll see you in a while  
  
    4. See the crosseyed pirates sitting perched in the sun
       Shooting tin cans with a sawed-off shotgun
       And the neighbours they clap and they cheer with each blast
       But farewell Angelina, the sky is changing color and I must leave fast   
                 
    5. King Kong little elves on the roof tops they dance
       Valentino-type tangoes while they make-up man's hands
       Shut the eyes of the dead, not to embarass anyone
       But farewell Angelina, the sky is embarassed and I must go 
                                
    6. The machine guns are roaring and the puppets hear rocks
       And friends nail time bombs to the hands of the clocks
       Call me any name you like, I will never deny it
       But farewell Angelina, the sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet
