WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Buffy Sainte-Marie - Angel Ukulele | Ver. 1
ok, doesn't anyone remember buffy sainte-marie? she actually wrote a bunch of mainstream songs
("until it's time for you to go", "up where we belong",
yet so many people have NEVER heard of her!!
her writing is amazing.
i have a songbook of hers ,which is 30 years old,
and has an extensive collection of her songs, yet "the angel" is not in it.
really a beatiful song, and i couldn't find the lyrics online anywhere,
and they weren't included on her "best of" cd's , either.
so i had to listen, and type, and listen, and type...
and i'm pretty sure these chords are right.
cheers.
