[Verse 1]
    C                  F            C
Farewell Angelina, the bells of the crown
          F         C               F          C
Are being stolen by bandits, I must follow the sound
                             F             G
The triangle tingles and the trumpets play slow
    Am       Em        Am        G
Farewell Angelina, the sky is on fire
F          C
And I must go


[Verse 2]
                                   F           C
There's no need for anger, there's no need for blame
        F          C           F                 C
There's nothing to prove, everything's still the same
                                   F           G
Just a table standing empty by the edge of the sea
    Am       Em        Am     G
Farewell Angelina, the sky is trembling
F          C
And I must leave


[Verse 3]
                             F              C
The jacks and queens have forsaken the courtyard
F         C           F             C
Fifty-two gypsies now file past the guards
                                     F            G
In the space where the deuce and the ace once ran wild
    Am       Em        Am     G
Farewell Angelina, the sky is folding
     F            C
I'll see you in a while


[Verse 4]
                                   F              C
See the cross-eyed pirates sitting perched in the sun
F            C           F         C
Shooting tin cans with a sawed-off shotgun
                                       F               G
And the neighbours, they clap and they cheer with each blast
    Am       Em        Am             G
Farewell Angelina, the sky's changing colour
    F            C
And I must leave fast


[Verse 5]
                                F             C
King Kong, little elves, on the rooftops they dance
     F         C                 F             C
Valentino-type tangos, while the make-up man's hands
                                   F          G
Shut the eyes of the dead not to embarrass anyone
    Am       Em        Am       G
Farewell Angelina, the sky is embarrassed
    F        C
And I must be gone


[Verse 6]
                                  F             C
The machine guns are roaring, and puppets heave rocks
    F           C                 F            C
The fiends nail time-bombs to the hands of the clocks
                                  F       G
Call me any name you like, I will never deny it
    Am       Em        Am     G
Farewell Angelina, the sky is empty
       F             C
I must go where it's quiet
                                  F       G
Call me any name you like, I will never deny it
    Am       Em        Am     G
Farewell Angelina, the sky is empty
       F             C
I must go where it's quiet
