[Verse 1]
G# C# G#
Farewell Angelina, the bells of the crown
C# G# C# G#
Are being stolen by bandits, I must follow the sound
C# D#
The triangle tingles and the trumpets play slow
Fm Cm Fm D#
Farewell Angelina, the sky is on fire
C# G#
And I must go
[Verse 2]
C# G#
There's no need for anger, there's no need for blame
C# G# C# G#
There's nothing to prove, everything's still the same
C# D#
Just a table standing empty by the edge of the sea
Fm Cm Fm D#
Farewell Angelina, the sky is trembling
C# G#
And I must leave
[Verse 3]
C# G#
The jacks and queens have forsaken the courtyard
C# G# C# G#
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
C# G#
I'll see you in a while
[Verse 4]
C# G#
See the cross-eyed pirates sitting perched in the sun
C# G# C# G#
Shooting tin cans with a sawed-off shotgun

And the neighbours, they clap and they cheer with each blast

Farewell Angelina, the sky's changing colour
C# G#
And I must leave fast
[Verse 5]
C# G#
King Kong, little elves, on the rooftops they dance
C# G# C# G#
Valentino-type tangos, while the make-up man's hands
C# D#
Shut the eyes of the dead not to embarrass anyone
Fm Cm Fm D#
Farewell Angelina, the sky is embarrassed
C# G#
And I must be gone
[Verse 6]
C# G#
The machine guns are roaring, and puppets heave rocks
C# G# C# G#
The fiends nail time-bombs to the hands of the clocks
C# D#
Call me any name you like, I will never deny it
Fm Cm Fm D#
Farewell Angelina, the sky is empty
C# G#
I must go where it's quiet
C# D#
Call me any name you like, I will never deny it
Fm Cm Fm D#
Farewell Angelina, the sky is empty
C# G#
I must go where it's quiet
