C                                       Em                     F                       C

Margarette Angel doesn’t dance no more under red lights blinking                                 V1

C                                              Em                       F                          G

She sits alone at the bar next door watch them young girls come drinking

F                                       C                                    F                                 G

Then they take painted smiles and an innocence wild just one block down further

C walk down                                                  Em      F             G                    C

Where they swing for fools on a stage of poles swing like there’s no tomorrow

　

C Em F C

Margarette Angel doesn’t sing no more cigarette voice raspy                                         V2

C Em F G

Them old men at the bar next door they’re humming ballads like its still the forties

F C F G

Then with wetted lips and their jaded wishes they step one block down further

C Em F G C

Where they dream like fools on front row stools , oh for to fill that hunger

　

F                         C         F                                C

Look Homeward Angel, tell me how long’s it been                                                               CHORUS

C                        Em             F                            G

Seems just like yesterday that we first stepped in

F                             C                         F                         G

A stone , A leaf, an unfound door, the Rock and the Web

C                      Am                                          F    G              C

So the rivers flow , even angels know you Can’t Go Home Again

Solo

C Em F C

Margarette Angel doesn’t talk no more, says she ain’t got no reason V3

C Em F G

She pulls the shades with a spilling dream while them old men keep believing’

F C F G

Til they pass lives’ shadows and slowly slip to one block down farther yet

C Em F G C

Where they’ll lie alone in fields of stone , with sweet dreams of Margarette

　

F                               C   F                                C                                                                    CHORUS

Look Homeward Angel, tell me how long’s it been

C                                 Am   F                              G

Seems just like yesterday that we first stepped in

F                              C                      F                          G

A stone , A leaf, an unfound door, the Rock and the Web

C                                         Am                    F         G               C

So the rivers flow , even angels know you Can’t Go Home Again

C                     Am            F          G           C

even angels know you Can’t Go Home Again

C Am F G C

Margarette Angel , Margarette come home.
