2x fingerpicked
She never mentions the word addiction
in certain company
yes, she'll tell you she's an orphan
after you meet her family
she paints her eyes as black as night now
pulls those shades down tight
yeah she gives a smile when the pain comes
the pain gonna make everything alright
says she talks to angels
they call her out by her name
oh yeah, she talks to angels
says they call her out by her name
she keeps a lock of hair in her pocket
she wears a cross around her neck
yes the hair is from a little boy
and the cross is someone she has not met
not yet
(chorus)
(line 2 variation) says they all know her name
she don't know no lover
none that I ever see
yet to her that ain't nothing
but to me it means, means everything
she paints her eyes as black as night now
pulls those shades down tight
yeah she gives a smile when the pain comes
the pain gonna make everything alright
says she talks to angels
they call her out by her name
oh yeah, she talks to angels
says they call her out by her name
says she talks to angels
they call her out by her name . . . . . . .
