1. You live your life in the songs you hear
on
the rock'n'roll radio,
Em
and
when a young girl doesn't have any friends,
that's
a really nice place to go.

Folks hoping you'd turn out
cool,

a little touched, you know, Angie baby !

2. Lovers appear in your room each night,
and
they whirl you across the floor,

but
they always seem to fade away,
when

"Angie, girl, are you alright ?
G

Tell the radio,
'goodnight'!"

3. Stopping at her house is a neighbour boy,
with
evil on his mind,
Em
'cause he's been peeking in
Angie's room
at night, through
her window blind.
Am
D7
"I see your folks have
gone away,
G C
would
you dance with me today ?
B7 Em
I'll show you how to have a
good time, Angie baby."

4. When he walks in her room, he feels confused,
like
he walked into a play,
Em
and
the music's so loud, it spins him around,
till
his soul has lost it's way.
Em
And as she turns the volume
down,
A
he's
getting smaller with the sound,
C
it
seems to pull him off the ground,
D E
toward
the radio he's bound, never to be found !

5. The headlines read that a boy disappeared,
and
everyone thinks he died,

'cept a crazy girl with a secret lover,
who
keeps her satisfied,

nice to be insane,
