I've mostly only put chords but there are a few lines marked with
asterisks that have TAB tips at the end of the file.
It's hiding in the corner
of every sacred place
before the ambush you won't want to
recognise its face
It slithers like a viper
readies its attack
tears your flesh and soul apart then
clings on to your back
not till it turns away can you
feel the pain of all the damage done
and you may notice that this quick opiate
might wear the wings of angels
that's when you realise you've been shot down
wounded unto death by something called
It followed you to hell, Ange
a double-agent who
will listen to your every lie
and never tell on you
just whisper to you true
promises you silk things
but burns the clothes you wear
gives you leave in heaven
and you scream that it's unfair
to force you to compare
but not till it turns away
can you feel the pain of
all the damage done
and you may notice that
this quick opiate
might wear the wings of angels
that's when you realise you've been shot down
wounded unto death by something called love
you've been shot down
wounded unto death by something called love
