It was a day just like (G)an y oth er day.
I was a boy just like (Fmaj7)ev ’ry oth er boy,

and (Fmaj7)in to my world.
It could ’ve been the sum mer wind play ing with her hair.
As the sun danced in her eyes, we were stand ing there.
She smiled; I for got my name, ’cause all I was think ing:
May be I’m cra zy, but I’m pray ing that an an gel will love me, an an gel will love me.
May be I’m a fool, but I’m still fall ing, ask ing Heav en a bove me for an an gel to love me the rest of my life,
the rest of my life.
You’re the proof that the (G)Fa ther an swers prayer,
’cause some how, some way, (Fmaj7)you and I are stand ing here
with a sa cred prom ise and a (G)ring that says it all.
Oh, I’ve (Am)just be gun to fall,
and from the (F)deep est part of me, I say, “I do.” me.
And af ter all the chang ing sea sons have turned to years, the crowds are gone and the songs have fad ed, well, I’ll still be here, hold ing you and thank ing Heav en for my an gel.

- Angel is arranged in the key of C on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.

- Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
- Yes — "Angel" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature C, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
- What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
- Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
- Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
- Yes — slow the tempo from 80 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
- Why can I click a note in the score?
- Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
- Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
- Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
