Verse: Play intro 4x (no distortion)
Lead over verse:
These are the high notes that are played
during the verse. Screw around with them
because they are played more, and in different

the keyboard instead of guitar.

| I think all Stabbing Westward fans are Stabbing Westward fans because we can all relate to Chris Hall's lyrics. Almost every single song is touching in some way. Granted, there are a few that we just wanna rock out to, but then you have songs like this and others on the last cd that make you feel something deep down. I personally love Angel and all the SW songs. WHY DID THEY HAFTA BREAK UP!? | |

| God this song reminds me so much of my boyfriend. He's done so much for me, gave me hope, something worth living for, and shown me that love doesn't always hurt. Think Stabbing Westward got it one with this song. I love it | |
