Key: C
Introduction: G Bm7 C D
G D/F#
I was walking home from school
Em C
On a cold winter day
G Em C D
Took a shortcut through the woods, and I lost my way
G D/F# Em C
It was getting late, and I was scared and alone
G Em C
But then a precious baby boy took my hand
D
And led me home
C Bm7 C D
Mama couldn't see him, oh but he was standing there
C Bm7
And I knew in my heart
C D
He was the answer to my prayers
G Em7 Am7 D
Oh I believe there are angels among us
G Em7 C D
Sent down to us from somewhere up above
G Em7 C D
They come to you and me in our darkest hours
C Bm7 C D
To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
C D D7 G Bm7 C D
To guide us with the light of love
G D/F#
When life held troubled times
Em C
And had me down on my knees
G Em
There's always been someone
C D
To come along and comfort me
G D/F#
A kind word from a stranger
Em C
To lend a helping hand
G Em C D
A phone call from a friend, just to say I understand
C Bm7 C D
And ain't it kind of funny that at the dark end of the road
C Bm7
Someone lights the way
C D
With just a single ray of hope
G Em7 Am7 D
Oh I believe there are angels among us
G Em C D
Sent down to us from somewhere up above

They come to you and me in our darkest hours
C Bm7 C D
To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
C D D7
To guide us with the light of love
C Bm7
They wear so many faces
C Em
Show up in the strangest places
C Bm7
To grace us with their mercy
Am7 D
In our time of need
G Em7 Am7 D
Oh I believe there are angels among us
G Em C D
Sent down to us from somewhere up above
G Em7 C D
They come to you and me in our darkest hours
C Bm7 C D
To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
C D D7 G Bm7 C D G
To guide us with the light of love
