Ciara

Intro, which is the basic riff for the whole song

D--------------0-------------------0-------------0--------0---------------
A--------------2-------------------0-------------0--------0---------------
G--------------0-------------------6-------------7--------6---------------
D--------------0-------------------7-------------0--------7---------------
A--------------0-------------------0-------------9--------0--(-9------5--)
D--------------0-------------------7-------------9--------7--(-9------5--)

last line before the chorus:

D--------------0-------------------0------------0--------0
A--------------2-------------------0------------0--------0
G--------------0-------------------6------------7--------6
D--------------0-------------------7------------0--------7
A--------------0-------------------0------------9--------0(----9------5-)
D--------------0-------------------7------------9--------7(----9------5-)

In our troubled           times,     we simply hide away, 
                Dream of the one     we'd love to see at the end of day
          Solitary           winter,    chill me no more,
     I dreamed         an angel,    by the western seashore,               


D--------------0--------------------0-------------0-------0---------------
A--------------2--------------------0-------------0-------0---------------
G--------------0--------------------6-------------7-------6---------------
D--------------0--------------------7-------------0-------7---------------
A--------------0--------------------0-------------9-------0------9------5-
D--------------0--------------------7-------------9-------7------9------5-

             Ciara,                  Ciara,
             Ciara,                  Ciara,

Verse:

 There is an angel, I would like to know
 I sing and dream  her face, lying on my pillow
 I kissed her one day, in the cool of Brigid's Well
 My heart beat crystal, clear, as a church bell

Chorus:

 Ciara, Ciara
 Ciara, Ciara

Then break to a little "solo" with very quick mini strums between these two
chords:

D------12------------14--------------------------------------
A------0-------------0---------------------------------------
G------12------------14--------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------------------------
A------------------------------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------------------------

then verse;

  I can hear the winter    coming to my door
  I dream an angel,   by the western seashore

chorus

 Ciara... Ciara (I dream an angel)
 Ciara... Ciara.
