Alabama - Angels Among Us chords

Tabbed by Joshua

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                        D/F#
I was walkin' home from school

        Em        C
on a cold winter day,

G                            Em        
took a short cut through the woods

C                D
and I lost my way.

G             D/F#              Em       C
It was gettin' late, and I was scared and alone.

G               Bm7         C                D
Then a kind old man took my hand, and led me home.


Bridge:
C              Bm7
Oh mama couldn't see him,

   C                    D
but he was standing there,

    C            Bm7
And I knew in my heart

           C             D
he was the answer to my prayer.


Chorus:
   G    Em             Am7         D
Oh, I believe there are Angels Among Us,

G            Em       C              D
Sent down to us from somewhere up above.

              G       Em    C            D
They come to you and me in our darkest hours

     C               Bm7
to show us how to live

   C                 D
to teach us how to give

   C                D        G
to guide us with a light of love.

G Bm7 C D 


Verse 2:
G                        D/F#
When life held troubled times

            Em            C
and had me down on my knees

         G             Bm7
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                Bm7
a phone call from a friend

         C           D
just to say I understand


Bridge:
      C               Bm7
Now ain't it kind of funny

        C               Bm7
at the dark end of the road

C         Bm7                        Am7            D 
someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope.


Chorus:
   G    Em             Am7         D
Oh, I believe there are Angels Among Us,

G         Em          C              D
Sent down to us from somewhere up above.

              G       Em    C            D
They come to you and me in our darkest hours

     C               Bm7
to show us how to live

   C                 D
to teach us how to give

   C                D        G
to guide us with a light of love.

Bridge:
C            Bm7
They wear so many faces,

C                Bm7
show up in the strangest places

     C                  Bm7     Am7              D
and grace us with their mercies in our time of need.
