----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Angel - Dave Matthews Band ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: Tune down 1/2 step (, , , , , ) I love this song, the band itself. I thought I'd try tabbing this. Another thing, Dave uses different picking, he doesn't just do a plain chord, so it will sound different. Intro: ------------------------------------------ Verse: ------------------------------------------ I call you up You pick up You call my bluff On the cards of love You hold to close Your hands to your chest I can't read you eyes But I confess It's lonely far From you Even when you're right by me It's only why I wait for you To take my ha - nd Chorus: ------------------------------------------ Why do I beg like a child for you can - dy? Why do I come after you like I do? I love you / Whate'er you are / / I swear, you'll be my an - gel, you Verse: ------------------------------------------ I play my cards Best I can But I lose my luck When you're not here My darling heart Won't you please give in? I may be strong But I want you back again When you're not here Oh, it's hard to pretend It's all alright....again When you're not here Love, it's hard to pretend It's all alright.....still ~Back To Chorus~ Verse: ------------------------------------------ Watch the deck And count your cards Makes no sense That I'm always losing ..... When you're gone ..... ..... ~Back To Chorus~ Outro: ------------------------------------------ ..... When you're gone ..... ..... THERE IT IS! Remember you must tune down a half step for this version to work! (There might be a version where you don't have to but this is just easier and it's how he played it) Chords below! / / eb|-0----1----3----3----2----3------------3-----3------3----| Bb|-1----1----0----1----3----3-----3------3-----3------3----| Gb|-0----2----0----0----2----0-----2------3-----0------3----| Db|-2----4----0----2----0----2-----0------5-----x------3----| Ab|-3----4----x--------------------x------5-----1-----------| Eb|------1----3--------------------2------3-----------------|
