For the verse play the same chords like in intro:

1st verse:
Good-bye little angel, so young and so sweet
So long little angel, taken so young from the street

           Am G D                           Am G D
Now you’re gone, all the world can feel the pain

Like a light went out somewhere…

2nd verse:
Good-bye little angel, it’s so hard to understand
What makes somebody do that? What makes that kind of a man?

               Am G D                            Am G D
But now you’re gone and things will never be the same
                             Am G D
I feel your tears when it rains
                             Am G D
And though I try I can’t explain
Where’s the sense in it all?

We cover our eyes cover our eyes cover our eyes
Cos we don’t wanna see it
We hope it’s a lie hope it’s a lie hope it’s a lie
Cos our world isn’t like this…

         G                               D
It’s too random to believe it, how could anyone concieve it?
     Am          C                D       (D Dsus4 D)
It‘s so sad, but it happened in this town
            G                              D
There’s no words of consolation, there’s no reasoned explanation
         Am           C                D
Just the fact that it happened in this town

3st verse:
Good-bye little angel, so young and so sweet
So long little angel, taken so young from the street

           Am G D                         Am G D
Now you’re gone, and things will never be the same

G                               D
How could anybody do it?, there’s no rhyme or reason to it.

     Am          C                D        (D Dsus4 D)
It‘s so sad, but it happened in this town

           G                               D
There’s no words of consolation, there’s no reasoned explanation.
         Am           C                D      G  D Am
Just the fact that it happened in this town.
          C                D     G  D  Am
It really happened in this town.
                    C                D
It‘s so sad, but it happened in this town.
