C
Modern day Romeo and Juliet
F
American tragedy
C
Low rent high rise lovers who met
G
At the end of Coronado Street
C
Crucifix made in the California gold
F
Two worlds bound to collide
C F
Heaven can't help you if you go
G C
Faster than angels fly.
Chorus:
F
Well they burned the candle at both ends
C
As they danced into the flames
F
Making love and making plans
C G
Driving Mother Mary insane
Am F
Strong as the beads of a rosary
Am F
Never too young to die
Am F
Some souls only know one speed
G C
Faster than angels fly
C
Ghost haunted barrio in Hollywood
F
Graffiti stained Wailing Wall
C
Dead end street gang up to no good
G
Out to make a retribution call
C
Sweet innocence caught in crossfires fate
F
Too late to draw the line
C F
Bullets can blow your dreams away
G C
Faster than angels fly
Chorus:
F
Well they burned the candle at both ends
C
As they danced into the flames
F
Making love and making plans
C G
Driving Mother Mary insane
Am F
Strong as the beads of a rosary
Am F
Never too young to die
Am F
Some souls only know one speed
G C
Faster than angels fly
