Sting - When The Angels Fall: chords

G            Em7
So high above the world tonight
D#                    Cm
the angels watch us sleeping
G            Em7
and underneath a bridge of stars
D#                    Cm
we dream in safety's keeping.

But perhaps the dream is dreaming us
soaring with the seagulls
but perhaps the dream is dreaming us
astride the backs of eagles.

Chorus:
Gm
When the angels fall
D/F#
shadows on the wall
F
in the thunder's call
C/E
something haunts us all.
D#                   Gm
When the angels fall,
D#                   Gm
when the angels fall.

Take your father's cross, gently from the wall
the shadow still remaining
see the churches fall in mighty arcs of sound
and all that they're containing.

Yet all the ragged souls of all the ragged men
looking for, their lost homes
shuffle to the ruins, from the levelled plain
to search among the tombstones.

Chorus

when the angels fall.

G
These are my feet,
F
these are my hands,
D
these are my children, and this is my demand.

G
Bring down the angels,
F
cast them from my sight,
D
I never want to see, a million suns at midnight.

C
Your hands are empty,
D
the streets are empty,

You can't control us,
                          G   Em
You can't control us, anymore.

C                G  Em
When the angels fall,
C                G  Em
when the angels fall,
C                G  Em
when the angels fall,
C                G  Em
when the angels fall.

C                G              Em
When the angels fall (peace on earth)
C                G                        Em
when the angels fall (million suns at midnight)
C                G Em
when the angels fall
C                G Em
When the angels fall
