I sit and wait

does an an gel

con tem plate my fate?

And do they know

the pla ces where we go

when we're grey and old?

'Cos I have been (F#m7)told

that sal va tion

lets their wings un fold.

So when I'm (D)ly ing in my bed,

thoughts (A)run ning through my head

and I (E)feel that love is dead,

I'm lov ing (A)an gels in stead.

And through it all

she of fers me pro tec (C#m)tion,

a lot of love and af fec tion, (Asus2)whe ther I'm right or (E)wrong.

And down the wa ter fall,

wher ev er it may take me, I know that life won't break me, (Asus2)when I come to call

she won't for sake me,

I'm lov ing (A)an gels in stead.

When I'm feel ing weak and my pain walks down

a one way street,

I look a bove

and I know I'll al ways be blessed with love,

and (D)as the feel ing grows

she brings (A)flesh to my bones

and (E)when love is dead

I'm lov ing (A)an gels in stead.

And through it all

And through it all

she of fers me pro tec (C#m)tion,

a lot of love and af fec tion, (Asus2)whe ther I'm right or (E)wrong.

And down the wa ter fall

wher ev er it may take me, I know that life won't break me, (Asus2)when I come to call

she won't for sake me,

I'm lov ing (A)an gels in stead.
