LITTLE ANGEL, LITTLE BROTHER (Lucinda Williams)
-----------------------------------------------
[intro: C  F  C  F]

       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
