Em
Black angel, black angel
   G        Em
As you grow up
              Bm
I want you to drink
  Em         D#m7/4 Em
From the plenty cup
My little black angel
My little black angel as years roll by
I want you to fly with wings held high
I want you to live by the justice code
I want you to burn down freedom's road
My little black angel
Oh lie away, oh lie away sleeping
Lie away safe in my arms
Your father, you future protects you
And locks you safe from all harm
Little black angel I feel so glad
You'll never have things I never had
When out of men's hearts all hate has gone
It's better to die than forever live on
My little black angel...
