Can anyone help me trying to find correct lyrics to this song, diana Jones sings it and she does such a beautiful rendition of it.

It's on a various-artists compilation called "Singer-Songwriter Heaven: The Songs of Kevin Faherty" (Gamblers Grace Music, 2009).

I think I heard this in a sample:

...angels walking home.
Jamie had the eye to size up situations
Like a pool shark round the table, dark configurations
And dancing through illusions of impossible angles,
She'd focus on the straight line....

Angles Walking Home
By Kevin Fahearty


For tenor guitar tuned CGCC
Capo 7
Version by: Diana Jones



Jamie lived her life
Like the punchline of a joke
I didn't always get it
But I laughed when she spoke

Jamie had her finger
On the pulse of a better way
The most vital sign
Was the smile upon her face

Get ready brothers
Here's another
Angles walking home

Jamie had the eye
To size up the situation
Like a pool shark around the table
A tough configuration

Dancing through illusions
Of impossible angels
She'd focus on the straight line
Then she'd own the table

Get ready brother
Here's another
Angle walking home

Angle Walking Home




Jamie's final dance
Was a horizontal stance
She just read the signs
There's no need to climb
When you live on heavens edge

Friends check out of life
Like it's a grand hotel
Memories are postcards
That say the trip went well

And resting from our journeys
When the journeys through
May we all reserve a room
From Jamie's point of view

Get ready brother
Here's another
Angle walking home

Get ready brother
Here's another
Angle walking home

ANGEL WALKING HOME

Jaime lived her life like a punch line from a joke.
Didn't always get it, but I laughed when she spoke.
Jaime had her finger on the pulse of a better way.
Most vital sign was the smile on her face.
Ready, brother. Here's another angel walking home.

Jaime had the eye to size up situations
Like a pool shark around a table.
Tough configurations and
Dancing through illusions of impossible angles.
She'd focus on the straight line
Then she'd hold the tape.
Ready, brother. Here's another angel walking home.

Jaime's final dance is a horizontal stance.
She just read the signs.
There's no use to climb
When you live on heaven's edge.
Friends check out of life
Like it's a grand hotel.
Memories are postcards that say the trip went well.
Missed in all our travels, when the journey's through.
May we all reserve a room from Jaime's point of view.
Ready, brother. Here's another angel walking home.

Hey thanks for the interest in my song. Was doing a little "ego-surfing" and stumbled across this discussion. Found the original lyrics on my computer. There's a word or two here and there that are a little different than Diana's version but basically she nailed it.

At some point we'll get all the lyrics and chords up on the website.
Don't have my version of it ready yet but at some point I'll have a MYSPACE page and I'll post it. My e-mail is at the bottom if anyone wishes to contact me.

Thanks,
Kevin Faherty


ANGEL WALKING HOME

1. Jamie lived her life like the punch line from a joke.
I didn't always get it, but I laughed when she spoke.
Jamie had her finger on the pulse of a better way.
Most vital sign: the smile on her face.

CHORUS: Get ready, brother. Here's another
Angel walking home.

2. Jamie had the eye to size up situations
Like a pool shark 'round a table of tough configurations,
Dancing through illusions of impossible angles,
She'd focus on the straight lines, then she'd own the table.

CHORUS: Get ready, brother. Here's another
Angel walking home.

BRIDGE: Jamie's final dance was a horizontal step.
She just read the sign: "There's no need to climb
When you've lived on heaven's edge."

3. Friends check out of life like it's a grand hotel.
Sweet memories are postcards that say the trip went well.
Resting on our travels and when the journey's through,
May we all reserve a room from Jamie's point of view.

CHORUS: Get ready, brother. Here's another
Angel walking home.
Get ready, brother. Here's another
Angel walking home.
Get ready, brother. Here's another
Angel walking home.
