C#5 B5 A5 C#5


[Verse 1]
C#5
When nothing goes my way
    B5
And late nights turn to days
   A5                          C#5
I spend my life in and out of trouble
    C#5                  B5
And everywhere I turn, I never seem to learn
A5                        C#5
Ending up my own worst enemy
  G#m                     F#
I can't get by alone, I'm helpless on my own
         E                             F#
When I'm desperate and I got nowhere to go


[Chorus 1]
          D#m  B   F#
I need an angel tonight
   C#              D#m    B     F#
To come around and save me this time
     C#            D#m         F5      F#5     B          C#
Just take away the pain that's killing me and show me the light, oooh
          D#m  B  F# E
I need an angel tonight

[Verse 2]
C#5                    B5
People I meet when I'm out there on the street
A5                      C#5
Open up the door to temptation
C#5                           B5
And every time they try, it's harder to get by
    A5                            C#5
And find the strength to carry me through
         G#m                         F#
You know there's a price to pay each time I lose my way
    E                          F#
Now I need someone here by my side


[Chorus 2]
          D#m  B   F#
I need an angel tonight
   C#              D#m    B     F#
To come around and save me this time
     C#            D#m         F5      F#5     B          C#
Just take away the pain that's killing me and show me the light, oooh
          D#m  B  F# E
I need an angel tonight


[Bridge]
B A             F#          E B
    To come and help me now
         A              F#    E  B
Oooh she gives me what I need
  A            B
Like an angel above me now, hey!

          D#m  B   F#
