^G I was walkin' ^D/F# home from school
^Em7 on a ^{C add D} cold winter day,
^G took a short cut ^Em7 through the ^{C add D} woods
and I ^D lost my way.
^G It was gettin' ^D/F# late, ^Em7 and I was ^{C add D} scared and alone.
^G Then a kind old ^Fm7 man took my ^{C (add D)band and led D} me home.
but ^{C add D} he was standing ^D7 there,
and ^{C add D} I knew in my ^G/B heart
he was the ^{C add D} answer to my ^D7 prayer.
Chorus:
Oh, ^{G add A} I be- ^Em7 lieve there are ^Am7 Angels A- ^D7 mong Us,
^{G add A} sent down ^Em7 to us from ^{C add D} somewhere up above.
^D7 They come to ^{G add A} you and ^Em7 me in ^C our darkest hours ^D7
to ^{C add D} show us how to ^Bm7 live
to ^{C add D} teach us how to ^D7 give
to ^{C add D} guide us with a ^D7 light of ^G love.
G Bm7 |C add D D7 |
Verse 2
When life held troubled times
and had me down on my knees
there's always been someone
to come along and comfort me
a kind word from a stranger
to lend a helping hand
a phone call from a friend
just to say I understand
Now ain't it kind of funny
at the dark end of the road
someone light the way with just a single ray of hope.
repeat Chorus
Bridge:
^{C add D} They wear so ^Bm7 many faces,
^{C add D} show up in the ^Bm7 strangest places
and ^{C add D} grace us with their ^Bm7 mercies ^Am7 in our time of ^D7 need.
repeat chorus
then repeat, "to guide us with a light of love"
G |C |D7 |G
y'all enjoy!
