[Intro] G D G D A F#m G D G [Verse 1]
G                                                D
You know the distance never made a difference to me

                                                    G          D
I swam a lake of fire, I'd have walked across the floor of any sea

                                             A F#m
Ignored the vastness between all that can be seen

    G              D
And all that we believe
[Chorus]
                              G        D G
So I thought you were like an angel to me
[Verse 2]
G                                               G   D
Funny how true colors shine in darkness and in secrecy

              D                                     G       D
If there were scarlet flags, they washed out in the mind of me

D                                         A  F#m
Where a blinding light shone on you every night

       G          D
Either side of my sleep
[Chorus]
                                   G       D
Where you were held frozen like an angel to me
[Post-Chorus]
             F#m7    Em7
It ain't the being alone
Sha-la-la
             F#m7        Em7
It ain't the empty home, baby

             F#m7       Em7
You know I'm good on my own

                                   G       D
Sha-la-la, baby, no, it's more the being unknown

                                    G       D
So much of the living, love, is the being unknown
[Verse 3]
G                                                G          D
You called me angel for the first time, my heart leapt from me

                                          G          D
You smile now, I can see its pieces still stuck in your teeth

                         D
And what's left of it, I listen to it tick

      A       F#m
Every tedious beat
[Chorus]
                     G        D
Going unknown as any angel to me
[Post-Chorus]
             F#m7  Em7
It ain't the being alone
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, la, la-la
             F#m7        Em7
It ain't the empty home, baby
Sha-la-la, la-la-la
         F#m7           Em7
You know I'm good on my own

                                   G      D
Sha-la-la, baby, no, it's more the being unknown

                                          G       D
And there are some people, love, who are better unknown
G D G D A F#m G D G
