Highlighted Show chord diagrams
G I thought I'd go up Poughkeepsie, C look out o'er the Hudson, G D and I'd throw my body down on the river. G And I'd know no more sorrow, C I'd fly like the sparrow G D G and I'd ride on the backs of the angels tonight. D C G I'd ride on the backs of the angels tonight. D C G I'd take to the sky with all my might. G No more drowning in my sorrow, G C no more drowning in my fright, G D G I'd just ride on the backs of the angels tonight. G There are those who know sorrow C and those who must borrow G D and those whose lot in life is sweet. G Well I'm drunk on self-pity, C scorned all that's been given me, G D G I would drink from a bottle labeled Sure Defeat. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/o/over-the-rhine/365437.html ] D C G I'd ride on the backs of the angels tonight. D C G I'd take to the sky with all my might. G No more drowning in my sorrow, G C no more drowning in my fright, G D G I'd just ride on the backs of the angels tonight. G Then the skies, they fell open C and my eyes were opened G D to a world of hope falling at my feet. G Now I've no more or less C than anyone else has, G D G what I have is a gift of life I can't repeat. G So I go up Poughkeepsie, C look out o'er the Hudson G D and I cast my worries to the sky. G Now I still know sorrow, C but I can fly like the sparrow G D G 'cause I ride on the backs of the angels tonight. D C G I'd ride on the backs of the angels tonight. D C G I'd take to the sky with all my might. G No more drowning in my sorrow, G C no more drowning in my fright, G D G I'll just ride on the backs of the angels each night.  |
