Ezio - Angel Song tab

Theres alot of righting here but its worth the time to read so enjoy....

The intro and the verse are the same and can be either fingerpicked or strummed
although if you can get your fingers to pick the strings it sounds more effective.
The three opening chords are derivatives of Em,Cmaj7 and Em7.
The best way of fretting them are to use a C shape adding your little finger
to fret the top string at the 10th fret.
Only the bass(E) and top three strings are picked, with the index finger
being used to slide between the 7th and 8th fret
during the chord progression.
Although not all the strings held down are used when fingerpicked they sound OK
when strummed. Note the different finger positions for identical chords and have fun!!!

             The chord positions used are as follows:

                    Em     0 10 9 0 8 10
                    Cmaj7  8 10 9 0 8 10 (use thumb to fret bass)
                    Em7    X 0  9 9 8 10
                    Asus2  002200
                    Em     022000
                    Cmaj7  332000
                    Dsus4  X54035
                    C      332010
                    D      200232     (F# in the bass)
                    G      320033
                    G?     200033
                    Em7    020033


    Intro Em , Cmaj7, Em7  X2


Em
I dreamt I was in heaven

and I was sitting in a bar
    Cmaj7
With all the other angels,
          Em7
you were smoking a cigar
Em
One hand on your hip

and one foot on a chair
      Cmaj7
And a golden ostrich feather
         Em7
that was planted in your hair

 Em, Cmaj7, Em7  X2


        Em
And if I really were an angel,

I'd float over your bed
     Cmaj7
Each night a different dream of me
    Em7
I'd plant inside your head
   Em
And if I were an angel,

I tell you what I'd do
     Cmaj7
I'd appear in a vision
        Asus2
and I'd give my wings to you

(--3--2--Em)see note below      EmX2,Cmaj7,Asus2,EmX2,Cmaj7,Asus2

At this point use standard chord positions i.e. Em     022000
                                                Cmaj7  332000
                                                Asus2  002200

Also from the end of the verse descend the bass string before you hit
the Em and Cmaj7 chord i.e.,-3-2-Emx2, -3-2-0-Cmaj7 , Asus2

And I'd say "come closer
C             D
Fly into the light
             G     G?         Em
And please, please don't be stupid     (see note below)
       G?       Csus2
Let me sleep tonight
     G     G?           Em
And please don't be stupid
       G?        Csus2
Let me sleep tonight"


    G(320033)  G?(200033)        Em(020033)
NB.  "please     don't     be      stupid


                  G?(200033) Csus2  (032033)
      let      me    sleep           tonight"     X2

(highlight the bass string run with pick or thumb)

Em
I dreamt you were a genie

and I found you in the sand
              Cmaj7
And you were trapped inside a bottle
       Em7
and I held you in my hand

       Em
And you said you'd grant me wishes

if you were ever freed
           Cmaj7
I said "an empty head when I go to bed
   Asus2
is all I ever need"

( bass string  -3-2-0)  Emx2,Cmaj7,Asus2,Emx2,Cmaj7,Asus2


  Em
So I, of course, released you, hoping you would keep your word
        Cmaj7                           Em7
And you laughed the cruellist laugh that I had ever heard
        Em
And you said "about these wishes, it's too late to decide"
        Cmaj7                                 Asus2
But I remembered that it was my dream... so I put you back inside

 3-2-Emx2    3-2-0 Cmaj7  Asus2     X2    (see note above)

  Em
I dreamt I was a pirate

aboard a pirate ship
         Cmaj7
And for a hand I had a hook
          Em7
and for a heart I had a whip
              Em
And you were trapped inside your bottle

and I kept you down below
         Cmaj7
And you begged me to release you...
     Asus2
but I would not let you go

 3-2- Em X2  Cmaj7, Asus2  X2

     Em
One night I was awoken

while we were out at sea
      Cmaj7
By a floating appartion
        Em7
glowing incadescently
    Em
And I could see you clearly

as all around was black
         Cmaj7
And you tore off both your wings, said
         Asus2
"Hey now you can have them back!"


          Intrument break played over Em,Cmaj7,Asus2 X2


             Dsus4  Em
And you said "come closer
C              D
Fly into the light

And please, please don't be stupid
       G?     Csus2
Let me sleep tonight"
             G      G?       Em
No you said "please don't be stupid
       G?      Csus2
Let me sleep tonight
