TEEN ANGEL

That fate-ful night the car was stalled
6    7     7    7   6    -6   -6     -6
Up-on the rail-road track
6  7  -8   7    6      -6
I pulled you out and we were safe,
6   7     7  -8   8  -9  -6    -6
But you went run-ning  back.
-6   6   -9   8  -8    8-87
Teen an-gel, can you hear me?
7    7   7   -7   7  -8     6
Teen an-gel, can you see me?
-8   -8  -8   7  -8   8    7
Are you some-where up a-bove,
8    8   -8    8   -9 -6   -6
And am I still your own true love.

What was it you were look-ing  for
6    7   7   7  6    -6   -6     -6
That took your life that night?
6     7    -8   7    6      -6
They said they found my high school ring
6     7    7    -8   8  -9    -6     -6
Clutched in your fin-gers tight.
-6       6   -9  8   -8    8-87
Teen an-gel, can you hear me?
7    7   7   -7   7  -8    6
Teen an-gel, can you see me?
-8   -8 -8    7  -8    8    7
Are you some-where up a-bove,
8   8   -8    8    -9 -6  -6
And am I still your own true love.

Just sweet six-teen and now you’re gone;
6     7     7    7  6    -6  -6     -6
They’ve taken you away.
6       7 -8   7  6  -6
I’ll nev-er kiss your lips again;
6    7   7  -8     8   -9  -6  -6
They bur-ied you to-day
-6   6   -9  8   -8 8-87

Teen an-gel, can you hear me?
7    7   7   -7   7  -8     6
Teen an-gel, can you see me?
-8   -8  -8   7  -8    8    7
Are you some-where up a-bove,
8    8  -8    8   -9  -6   -6
And am I still your own true love.
-6  6 -9  8     -8  8-8   7    7
Teen an-gel, teen an-gel,
7    7  7     7     7   7
An-swer me please.
