Capo 3
Tone [G]
[D] Angel came [Am] down from [Em] heaven yester[D] day.
[G] She stayed with me [C] just long enough to [D] rescue me. [A7]
[D] And she [Am] told me a [Em] story yester[D] day
[G] about the sweet [C] love between the moon and the [D] deep blue sea. [C]
[G] And then she spread her [C] wings, high [D] over me.
She said, [Em] she’s [D] going to [G] come back tomorrow.
And I said, “[C] fly on my sweet [Dm7] angel. [G7] Fly on through the [C] sky.
[C] Fly on, my sweet [Dm7] angel, to[G7] morrow I’m gonna be by your [C] side.”
[D] Sure [Am] enough, this morning [Em] came on to [D] me;
[G] silver winged s[C] ilhouette against a [D] child’s sunrise. [A7]
[D] And my [Am] angel, she [Em] said unto [D] me,
[G] “today is the [C] day for you to [D] rise. [C]
Take my [G] hand, you’re [C] gonna be my [D] man. You’re gonna rise.”
And [Em] then she took [D] me high [G] over yonder, Lord.
And I said, “[C] fly on my sweet [Dm7] angel. [G7] Fly on through the [C] sky.
[C] Fly on, my sweet [Dm7] angel, to[G7] morrow I’m gonna be by your [C] side.”
