But if you line up the chords and bars vertically, all the licks should fall into place. This song was originally played through a Leslie speaker, but sounds fine through a phaser or flanger.

Posted by Erik Klein (kleine@cs.utwente.nl) from the Netherlands. I've only tabbed the intro yet. The rest will follow later. The whole song is played with the guitar tuned down a half step. A Leslie is used to get the 'spacy sound'. This effect can be emulated with a chorus pedal at a medium slow rate.

Fly on my sweet Angel Fly on though the sky Fly on my sweet Angel Tomorrow I'm gonna be by your side. Sure enough this woman came home to me Silver wings silhouetted against a child's sunrise And my Angel she said unto me Today is the day for you to rise. Take my hand You're gonna be my man You're gonna rise Then she took me high over yonder And I said.. Fly on my sweet Angel Fly on through the sky Fly on my sweet Angel Forever I'm gonna be by your side.
