G                     D/F#
After every day after Thanksgiving sale.,
    Em                    C,s
The malls just ain't complete
G                    D/F#             Em          C       
Without a bunch of decorations and a paper angel tree
Am                 G/B       C         G/B
There's arificial smiles on artificial tree limbs
Am               G/B              C               Dsus-D
Sayin what she'd love to have and what to buy for him


        G                    D/F#
Well I hope Maggie likes her new winter clothes
        Em                  C
And her buggie with a baby doll
           G                  D/F#                
And maybe Tom'll smile in his new Nike shoes 
         Em                C
When he shoots that basketball
Am                G/B     C          G/B
I can't help but wishin, that I could do more
Am            G/B               C                   D
But not just while I'm shopping in the department store


Chorus:
G     D/F#          Em                  C
Paper angels you're in my thoughts and prayers
G                   D/F#            Em                   C
No matter where you are right now, remember God's right there

Of His paper angels,   everywhere



       G                     D/F#
Goin through the mail almost every afternoon
        Em                   C
I see a mom and dad's worst dream
G                      D/F#               Em             C     
There on the back of a money-saving ad to get my carpet cleaned
Am                    G/B         C             G/B
Height, weight, hair, eyes, date missin, and D.O.B.
Am         G/B                       C                Dsus-D
A child's name, a picture, and the words "Have you see me?"


CHORUS


     C                          G/B
His documented bruises, fill a folder and a file
         C                          D                 
She's a second grade self portrait drawn without a smile
    C                            G       D/F#   Em
And every town is littered with this kind of debris
      Am               G/B           C             D
We've got to stop this madness, it's up to you and me


Last Chorus:
G     D/F#          Em                  C
Paper angels you're in my thoughts and prayers
G                   D/F#            Em                   C
No matter where you are right now, remember God's right there
Am          G/B        C       G/B
He's asking all of us, to help take care 
        Am   G/B    C   D    Am  G/B
Of His paper angels,   everywhere

Paper angels, everywhere
