[Intro]
G EM G EM x2
[Verse 1]
G
I had a friend
C G
He didn't make it home last night
C G
He went out on the town
C G C
He had himself a time
D C G
When it was time for leaving, he was much too tight
D C G
He climbed behind the wheel and it cost him his life
Em D G
He thought he knew better, and the odds he could beat
C D
He said, "I'll make it alright, don't you worry for me"
[Chorus]
G
It can't
D C G
It can't happen to me, I got an angel watching over me It can't
D C G
It can't happen to me, It's always someone else, you see, It can't
D C
Can't happen to me, It can't happen to me
[Verse 2]
G
Well, I knew a young man
C G
He had it all going his way
C G
But he carried with him
C G C
A deep seeded pain
D C G
He stepped over the line to find some escape
D C G
They found him one night, Lying face down in the rain
Em D G
He thought he was stronger and the odds he could beat
C D
He said, "I'll be alright, don't you worry for me"
[Chorus]
G
It can't
D C G
It can't happen to me, I got an angel watching over me It can't
D C G
It can't happen to me, It's always someone else, you see, It can't
D C
Can't happen to me, It can't happen to me
[Bridge]
D C G
I wish I had a dollar for every time I've heard it said
D C G
"They'll never get to me, cause I'm quicker than the rest"
D C Em
The night is closing in and the hounds are at my heels
C D D D D D D D D D
But, I'm always one step ahead
[Chorus]
G
It can't
D C G
It can't happen to me, I got an angel watching over me It can't
D C G
It can't happen to me, It's always someone else, you see, It can't
D C
Can't happen to me, It can't happen to me
G
No, No, No It Can't
D C
It can't happen to me
G
I've got an angel watching over me
