Lyrics

[Verse 1]
C    C
 Farewell, Angelina
    F                 C
The bells of the crown
Are being stolen by bandits
       F          C
I must follow the sound.
The triangle tingles
        F                  G
And the trumpets play slow.

[Chorus]
    Am        Em
Farewell, Angelina
    Am        Em
The sky is on fire
F          C
And I must go.

[Verse 2]
        C
There's no need for anger
        F                 C
There's no need for blame.
There's nothing to prove
     F                 C
Everything's still the same.
Just a table standing empty
       F              G
By the edge of the sea means

[Chorus]
    Am        Em
Farewell, Angelina
    Am          Em
The sky is trembling
F          C
And I must leave.

[Verse 3]
    C
The jack and the queen
        F                  C
Have forsake the courtyard.
Fiftytwo gypsies
    F             C
Now file past the guards
In the space where the deuce
           F             G
And the ace once ran wild

[Chorus]
    Am        Em
Farewell, Angelina
    Am        Em
The sky is falling
     F            C
I'll see you in a while.

[Verse 4]
        C
See the crosseyed pirates sitting
F                 C
Perched in the sun
Shooting tin cans
       F            C
With a sawedoff shotgun.
And the neighbours they clap
         F                     G
And they cheer with each blast.

[Chorus]
    Am        Em
Farewell, Angelina
    Am             Em
The sky's changing color
    F            C
And I must leave fast

[Verse 5]
     C
King Kong, little elves
       F             C
On the rooftops they dance
Valentinotype tangos
          F            C
While the makeup man's hands
Shut the eyes of the dead
         F              G
Not to embarrass anyone.

[Chorus]
        Am        Em
But Farewell, Angelina
    Am         Em
The sky's embarrassed
    F         C
And I must be gone.

[Verse 6]
      C
The machine guns are roaring
    F                  C
The puppets heave rocks
And fiends nail time bombs
       F            C
To the hands of the clocks.
Call me any name you like
       F          G
I will never deny it,

[Chorus]
        Am        Em
But Farewell, Angelina
    Am      Em
The sky is erupting
       F             C
I must go where it's quiet.
