Intro: Cmaj7  C   Am7   Am   Cmaj7  C   Am   Cmaj7 

     C 
Carmelita was a street angel 
    Am7               Am    Cmaj7 
But she kept her halo hid 
      C 
Never learned to read or write so well 
       G                     Cmaj7 
She was just a farmer's kid 
            C 
She took communion at the age of twelve 
Am7                 Am    Dm 
She wore a cross of wood 

She heard the clanging of the mission bell 
       G 
And she vowed that she'd be good
