Angel Of Lyon by Tom Russell Band




                         Angel Of Lyon







HE HAD A (C)VISION OF ANNE MARIE WITH A R(F)OSARY IN HER H(C)AND
SO ITS E(F)XIT THE RAINM(C)AKER, THE OLD G(F)REY FLANNEL M(G)AN
WITH A C(C)LOSET FULL OF BUSINESS SUITS, HE LEFTA L(F)ETTER NEAR THE 
(C)PHONE,       
IT SAID I'M (F)ON MY WAY TO (Dm)PARADISE, TO SEE THE (Bb)ANGEL OF (G)LYON"

(same as first)
AND THEN HE CAUGHT THE TRAIN TO BRUSSELS, HE ORDERED COGNAC AND CROISSANTS,
HE MADE A MENTAL LIST OF THINGS HE OWNED BUT DIDN?T WANT,
ALL THE BUILDINGS, ALL THE REAL ESTATE, THE ANTIQUE GLASS AND STONE,
HE?D TRADE A VOW OF POVERTY TO SEE THE ANGEL OF LYON

AND HE S(Am)ANG (Em)AVE MARIA, OR AT (F)LEAST THE PARTS (G)HE (C)KNEW
AND (Am)WATCHED THE SHADOW (Em)OF THE TRAIN
ON THE (F)TOWNS THAT THEY ROLLED (G)THROUGH
AND HE (Am)CLOSED HIS EYES AND HE (Em)SAW TWO RIVERS
THE (F)RHONE AND (G)THE (C)SAONE
(Am)THE MALE AND FEMALE SPIRIT OF THE (Bb)CITY OF (G)LYON

THEN HE WAITED ON THE BRIDGE, WHERE THEY MET THE YEAR BEFORE
BUT THE DAYS TURNED INTO WEEKS AND THEN THE SEASONS NUMBERED FOUR
AND HIS CLOTHES GREW WORN AND RAGGED AS THROUGH THAT TOWN HE ROAMED,
SEARCHING EVERY OPEN WINDOW, FOR THE ANGEL OF LYON

AND HE SANG AVA MARIA, OR AT LEAST THE PARTS HE KNEW,
AND WATCHED HIS SHADOW ON THE WALLS OF THE STREETS THAT HE WALKED THROUGH,
AND HE CROSSED THOSE HOLY RIVERS, THE RHONE AND THE SAONE
THEY'D NOT GIVE UP THE SECRET OF, THE ANGEL OF LYON

NOW THERES A(C) THOUSAND CANDLES BURNING IN THE(F)BASILICA(C)TONIGHT,
WHERE SISTER(F) EVE MARIA IS THE KEE(F)PER OF THE(G) LIGHT
AND DOWN(C)A DREAM OF ALLEYWAYS WALKS A (F)SAINT OF RAG AND(C) BONE,
THE(F) MADMAN TORN (Dm)ASUNDER, BY THE (Bb)ANGEL OF(G) LYON

AND HE SANG AVA MARIA, OR AT LEAST THE PARTS HE KNEW,
AND WATCHED HIS SHADOW ON THE WALL OF THE STREETS THAT HE CRAWLED THROUGH
AND HE CROSSED THOSE HOLY RIVERS, THE RHONE AND THE SAONE,
BUT THEY'D NOT GIVE UP THE SECRET OF THE ANGEL OF LYON
