Match Made in Heaven--Bruce Robison
written by B. Robison
From the album "Bruce Robison"
The other tab on here (submitted by Jeffrey Brent) is pretty damn good, but a little
hard on the wrist. I put a capo to it and added a couple "sus" chords and
extra base notes.
Capo III
INTRO: D/A D Dsus4 (4x)
D
In a dim lit bar on the west side of town
D/A D
She's tryin a little too hard to turn his poor head around
G Gsus
With a cigarette smoke halo and one broken wing
D/A D
She stumbles into his hazy daydream
C Cadd9
He's a little cocky and she's a little stocky
G Gsus-D
But all is forgiven in the nighttime somehow
CHORUS:
Gsus D Dsus4 D
It was a match made in Heaven by an angel on high
G D Dsus4 D
From her soft proposition to his gin soaked reply
Gsus D
A gentle admission of loneliness and fright
C G D
A match made in Heaven when two lonely hearts send the night
She said I was an angel when I was a child
And it was all laughter and love for a while
You don't think of the future when you're gettin it for free
Somehow I made God angry at me
Tonight as my heart is breakin' I pray I'll awaken
And there'll be somebody somewhere for me
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
C G
And they cling to each other by lone candle flame
D D/A
He calls her honey he don't remember her name
Cadd9 G A7 D
She acts like she's sleepin as he slips away in the night
CHORUS 2:
It was a match made in Heaven, they're goin through hell
Lord have mercy on the angel who fell
Sometimes it ain't easy tellin' wrong from the right
A match made in Heave when two lonely hearts can get by
