Little Angel, Little Brother (Akkorde) Lyrics

C F
Your R&B records and your music books
C F
Your sense of humor and your rugged good looks
Em Dm
I see you now at the piano
Em Dm
Your back a slow curve
Em Dm
Playing Ray Charles and Fats Domino

Em Dm
While I sang all the words
F G
Little angel, little brother

Your bad habits and your attitude
Your restless ways and your solitude
I see you leaning your lanky frame
Just inside the door
A figure behind the kitchen screen
Staring down at the floor

Little angel, little brother

[instrumental: C F C F Em Dm Em Dm]

Little angel, little brother

Your passion for Shakespeare and your paperbacks
Your chess pieces and your wisecracks
I see you sleeping in the car
Curled up on the back seat
Parked outside of a bar
An empty bottle at your feet

Little angel, little brother

Your R&B records and your music books
Your sense of humor and your rugged good looks
I see you now at the piano
Your back a slow curve
Playing Ray Charles and Fats Domino
While I sang all the words

F G
Little angel, little brother
F G C F C.
Little angel, little brother of mine
