ANGEL
 
Basic chords, try to keep the top E ringing and have fun with it.
 
Jimi played a semi-tone down, so when listening to original may sound out of tune with these chords.

^ These chords are fine - they play along perfectly with the record. And who cares if the lyrics are wrong?

The lyrics are fine they are the same as on the First Rays of the New Rising Sun album. (I'm guessing it's just a reissue of the original song) The acoustic version of the song has different lyrics though.

Of the chord versions posted, this one is the truest. The opening chords are missing, but everything else is pretty spot on. I'm not sure why there were any negative comments posted. Great chart. Thanks!
