Intro:   C   F   C   Am   G   C
         
         C                  G                      C
I walked down to the river  -  Stood on the shore
                              F                         C
Seems like the devil's always tryin' to get in my door
                               G
Just when I thought I couldn't take any more
        F              C
Here he comes again my friend
         Am         C       F             C
He keeps sending me angels  -  from up on high
         Am         Dm        F           C
He keeps sending me angels to teach me to fly
         Am         C       F            C
He keeps sending me angels  -  sweet and true
         Am         Dm     F    G    C          F   C   Am   G
He keeps sending me angels just like you
     C                       G                    C
As I stand on this mountain  -  face to the wind
                        F                       C
Amazed at the number of times we've all sinned
                           G
And countless enemies that should've been friends
      F           C
Oh Oh Oh, here he comes again
         Am         C       F                    C
He keeps sending me angels  -   Here they come a flyin'
         Am         Dm        F            C
He keeps sending me angels to keep me from cryin'
         Am         C         F          C
He keeps sending me angels so I won't be blue.
         Am         Dm     F    G    C
He keeps sending me angels just like you.

     C                     G                          C
Some say that it's comin'  -  I say it's already here
                                     F
The love that's among us through the joy and the fear
       C                       G
When I look in your eyes, everything is so clear
   F               C
