Angels Among Us Alabama
Well there was only one version of this song, and it was pretty hard to
understand, so I figured I would simplify it.
Capo on first fret
[G] [D/F#] [C] [G] [Bm7] [C] [D]
Verse 1
(Spoken)
[G]I was walkin' home from s[D/F#]chool
on a col[Em]d winter d[C]ay,
[G]took a short cut through the [Em]woods
[C]and I lost my way[D].
[G]It was gettin'[D/F#] late, and I was s[Em]cared and[C] alone.
[G]Then a kind old [Bm7]man took my [C]hand, and led me [D]home.
Bridge:
[C]Oh mama couldn'[Bm7]t see him,
but[C] he was standing ther[D]e,
And [C]I knew in my [Bm7]heart
he was the [C]answer to my p[D]rayer.
Chorus:
Oh,[G] I be[Em]lieve there are[Am7] Angels Amon[D]g Us,
[G]Sent down to [Em]us from s[C]omewhere up abo[D]ve.
They come to y[G]ou and m[Em]e in o[C]ur darkest ho[D]urs
to sh[C]ow us how to liv[Bm7]e
to [C]teach us how to gi[D]ve
to [C]guide us with a l[D]ight of l[G]ove.
[G] [Bm7] [C] [D]
Verse 2:
[G]When life held troubled t[D/F#]imes
and had me d[Em]own on my knee[C]s
there's a[G]lways been som[Bm7]eone
to come al[C]ong and comfor[D]t me
a k[G]ind word from a str[D/F#]anger
to len[Em]d a helping ha[C]nd
a ph[G]one call from a f[Bm7]riend
just to s[C]ay I underst[D]and
Bridge:
Now ai[C]n't it kind of f[Bm7]unny
at the d[C]ark end of the r[Bm7]oad
[C]someone li[Bm7]ghts the way with just a si[Am7]ngle ray of hop[D]e.
Chorus:
Oh,[G] I be[Em]lieve there are[Am7] Angels Amon[D]g Us,
[G]Sent down [Em]to us from s[C]omewhere up abo[D]ve.

to sh[C]ow us how to liv[Bm7]e
to [C]teach us how to gi[D]ve
to [C]guide us with a l[D]ight of l[G]ove.
Bridge:
[C]They wear so [Bm7]many faces,
[C]show up in the st[Bm7]rangest places
and g[C]race us with their [Bm7]mercies [Am7]in our time of ne[D]ed.
Chorus:
Oh,[G] I be[Em]lieve there are[Am7] Angels Amon[D]g Us,

to [C]guide us with a l[D]ight of l[G]ove.
to [C]guide us with a l[D]ight of lo[G]ve
[G] [C] [D] [G]
