They say I latched onto you Like you was the last train leaving town But you just kept on moving boy Left me here to live you down Mama said she'd send a wire and cried on the phone Said you'll always be my angel girl Won't you come back home If was an angel, I'd fly over Jordan Wouldn't need no Greyhound to save my soul Maybe that's a good thing, I'll be home before I know 'Cause if I was an angel, I'd have a long way to go Got a job as a waitress In this God forsaken place Guess there's no choosing where you land When you fall grace I'm not sure what keeps me here, my shame or my fool pride Neither one can give me wings Or offer me a ride Chorus Oh, tonight I'll be dreaming of the cracks in the sidewalk The face through the window, back to the place I belong Ooh Chorus Well maybe that's a good thing, I'll be home before I know And I was an angel, I'd have a long to way go Note: There are a couple places where this sounds different from the background on the CD, if you are playing along with it, but perfectly fine if you are singing alone with your guitar.
