Lyrics:
F# C#6 G#m
Angel came down from heaven yesterday
B E
Stayed with me just long enough to rescue me....
F# C#6 G#m
And she told me a story yesterday
B E
About the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea
B D F#
The she spread her wings high over me....she said
G#m A#m
I'll come back again to see you tomorrow
B Bsus
And I said
Chorus:
E F#m7/E
Fly on my sweet angel
C A D D# E
Fly on through the sky
E F#m7/E
Fly on my sweet angel
C A D D# E
Tomorrow I'm 'gonna be by your side
Sure enough to this woman came home to me
Silver wings silhouetted against a child's sunrise
And my angel she said unto me
today is the day for you to rise
Take my hand come you're gonna be my man
and she took me high over yonder
(Chorus)
Well, I don't know how the tab is going to look, since I only wrote it
in Windows Notepad. But if you line up the chords and bars vertically,
all the licks should fall into place. This song was originally played through
a Leslie speaker, but sounds fine through a phaser or flanger.
-----
I've only tabbed the intro yet. The rest will follow later.
The whole song is played with the guitar tuned down a half step.
A Leslie is used to get the 'spacy sound'. This effect can be emulated with a chorus
pedal at a medium slow rate.

"She," can be interpreted in as many ways as reasons for our existance. The one thing everyone seems to agree on is that "she," is Jimi's guardian angel. Now, is this angel real? You have "she," that could be an actual person, perhaps a girlfriend, best friend or something. "She," could also be in his head, his own guardian angel, the little voice in the back of his head. Here's one that I just thought of. Maybe "she," is his guitar. Obviously this man had a great connection with his guitar(s). This isn't the first time people have called guitars "she." Now, I don't have the lyrical support to back up this arguement, it's only my opinion on what it might be. I'm trying to make the point that you need to think about this and draw your OWN conclusions on what it means. I believe this is what Jimi really wanted us to do.
