Angels 
E 
Me and some of the boys were sitting around the other night 
A                                                     E 
Started talking about politics, religion, love and life  
 
And what a shame it was about 9-11 
A                                
and what about hell and what about heaven 
E 
And is there or isn?t there angels here on earth 
A 
And then one guy said, well you can take that for what it?s worth 
E                                               B 
If it?s something I can see or something I can touch 
                                        E 
Well then I might believe in all that stuff 
So I just had to say to him 


[Refrão]
E                                         A 
Are you telling me you?ve never seen an angel? 
E                                       F#m   B7 
Never felt the presence of one standing by 
E 
No robe of white or halo in sight 
             G#7                    C#m 
Well you?ve missed the most obvious thing 
A                   F#m7                      E 
Man are you blind, just look in your mother?s eyes 
 
 
And then I said who went through the pain  
and smiled through the tears on the day of your birth 
She counted your fingers and toes and thanked God you were whole 
And son you ought to know who loved you first, that?s right 
Who always came running every time you cried out 
And how many more things have you forgotten about 
Who tried her best to teach you wrong from right 
And how many nights did she leave on the light 
While she waited and prayed until you came in 
And who?ll be there for you right up to the end 
Think about it now
