Em Cmaj7 Am C (Em D Em)
In and out of the front door, ran twelve back-door angels.
C D G C Am
Their hair was a golden-brown ---
Am D D B Em
they didn't see me wink my eye.
Em D C (Em D Em)
`Tis said they put we men to sleep with just a whisper,
C D G C Am D D B Em
And touch the heads of dying dogs --- and make them linger.
Em D C (Em D Em)
They carry their candles high --- and they light the dark hours.
C D G C Am D
And sweep all the country clean with pressed and scented wild-flowers.

They grow all their roses red, and paint our skies blue ---
C D G C Am
drop one penny in every second bowl ---
Am D D B Em
make half the beggars lose,
Em D C (Em D Em)
why do the faithful have such a will to believe in something?
C D G C Am
And call it the name they choose,
Am D D B Em
having chosen nothing.

Think I'll sit down and invent some fool --- some Grand Court Jester.

And next time the die is cast, he'll throw a six or two.
In and out of the back-door, ran one front-door angel,
Her hair was a golden-brown --- she smiled and I think she winked her eye.
