     C    Fmaj7 C
Farewell Angelina
    Fmaj7          C
The bells of the crown
                   Fmaj7 C
Are being stolen by  bandits
       Fmaj7       C
I must follow the sound
      C
The triangle tingles
    Fmaj7        C
the music play slow
                Am
But farewell Angelina
     C           Em
The night is on fire
F           C Csus4 C
And I must go.

There's no use in talking
There's no need for blame
There's nothing to prove
Ev'rything's still is the same
a table standing empty
By the edge of the stream
but farewell Angelina
The sky is changing colors
And I must leave.

The jacks and the queens
Have forsaked the courtyard
Fifty-two gypsies
Now file past the guards
In the space where the deuce
And the ace once ran wild
Farewell Angelina
The sky is folding
I ll see you in a while

See the cross-eyed pirates sitting
Perched in the sun
Shooting tin cans
With a sawed-off shotgun
And the neighbors they clap
And they cheer with each blast
Farewell Angelina
The skys changing color
And I must leave fast

King Kong, little elves
On the rooftops they dance
Valentino-type tangos
While the makeup mans hands
Shut the eyes of the dead
Not to embarrass anyone
Farewell Angelina
The sky is embarrassed
And I must be gone

The machine guns are roaring
The puppets heave rocks
The fiends nail time bombs
To the hands of the clocks
Call me any name you like
I will never deny it
Farewell Angelina
The sky is erupting
I must go where its quiet
