Waiting On An Angel   Ben Harper

ARTIST: Ben Harper
SONG: Waiting On An Angel
TABBED BY: Moses Brown             browneye_023@yahoo.com.au


Ok the version of this on the album is tuned down a whole step, 
but if you can't be bothered it still sounds heaps good with 
standard tuning. Actually the Hollywood Bowl concert he just 
plays it with normal tuning, and it sounds great. The chords 
used in this song are basic but the hard part is the pattern 
he uses which is kinda complicated, but if you follow the 
instructions you should be sweet. Enjoy!


p = pull off
h = hammer on

 to find myself...         resting   place   in   my       angel's       arms              in my angel's arms




Waiting on an angel
one to carry me home
hope you come to see me soon
cause I don't want to go alone
I don't want to go alone

Now angel won't you come by me
angel hear my plea
take my hand lift me up
so that I can fly with thee
so that I can fly with thee

And I'm waiting on an angel
and I know it won't be long
to find myself a resting place
in my angel's arms
in my angel's arms

So speak kind to a stranger
cause you'll never know
it just might be an angel come
knockin' at your door
knockin' at your door

And I'm waiting on an angel
and I know it won't be long
to find myself a resting place
in my angel's arms
in my angel's arms

Waiting on an angel
one to carry me home
hope you come to see me soon
cause I don't want to go alone
I don't want to go alone
don't want to go
I don't want to go alone
