My Angeline by Iiird Tyme Out
My Angeline
Tuning: Standard
C Am
Angelina Baker, lived just down the street
C Am
And my my heart would set to achin’ every time we chanced to meet
C Am
Although she’s now another’s, I still recall the time
C Am Dm C
When my little Angie swore that she’d always be mine
C Am
Temper of a fury, Irish born and bred
C Am
Skin of cream and roses, and her hair was curly red
C Am
She could sing just like a songbird, in a sweet magnolia June
C Am Dm C
And she could play upon a young man’s heart, like sawin’ on a fiddle tune
C Am
Well the ocean is a mistress, once she gets in the veins
C Am
And to live a life without her Lord, would drive a man insane
C Am
My Angeline grew jealous, said it’s either her or me
C Am Dm C
And she cursed my name in a last farewell, as I set out to sea
C Am
For ten long years I terried, in every port of call
C Am
Tryin’ to forget that gal of mine, wouldn’t do no good at all
C Am
So I went to beg her pardon, and make another start
C Am Dm C
Just to find my Angeline had died of a broken heart
Break: (Verse progression)
Note: (If you have a banjo player, strum each following note once while the banjo
continues to play)
C Am
I’m not much good for nothin’, my youth long passed away
C Am
But if you hand me down my banjo son, I do believe I’ll play
C Dm C Am
Angelina Baker… Angeline I know
C Am Dm C
I should’a married Angeline 40 some-odd years ago
C Dm C Am
Angelina Baker… Angeline I know
C Am Dm C
I should’a married Angeline 40 some-odd years ago
C Dm C Am
Angelina Baker… Angeline I know
C Am Dm C
I should’a married Angeline 40 some-odd years ago
End with the verse progression.
