[C]Some kind of saviour [Dm]singing the blues
A [F]derelict in your [C]duct tape shoes
Your [Dm]orphan clothes and your [F]long dark hair
[Dm]Looking like you [F]didn't care
Drunken [C]angel
[C]Blood spilled out from the [Dm]hole in your heart
[F]Over the strings of [C]your guitar
The [Dm]worn down places [F]in the wood
That [Dm]once had made you [F]feel so good
