        Intro: E       E

 

        Verse 1:

                  E             A           C#m           Bb

        I sit and wait. Does an angel contemplate my fate.

                    E                        C#m                          Bb

        And do they know the places where we go when we're grey and old.

                        A         C#m                  A

        Cuz I have been told that salvation lets their wings unfold.

                    D                         A

        So when I'm lying in my bed, thoughts running through my head,

              E                         D          A      E  

        and I feel that love is dead.   I'm loving angels instead.

       

        Chorus:

        E              Bb                C#m

        And through it all she offers me protection, a lot of

                 A                               E

        Love and affection, whether I'm right or wrong. 

                           Bb                   C#m

        And down the water-fall wherever it may take me,

                               A     

        I know that life won't break me.

                       G#m             F#m

        When I come to call, she won't forsake me.

        D          A      E    

        I'm loving angels instead.

        Verse 2:

        E                            A                 C#m              Bb

        When I'm feeling weak and my pain walks down a one way street,

               E           C#m                   A                 Bb

        I look above and I know I'll always be blessed with love.

            D                                  A               

        And as the feeling grows, she breathes flesh to my bones

            E                   D          A      E

        And when love is dead,  I'm loving angels instead.
