Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Theres a man standing on a corner
With a sign sayin will work for food
You know the man you see him every mornin
The one you never give your money to
You can sit there with your window rolled up
Wonderin when the lights are gonna turn green
Never knowin what a couple more bucks
In his pocket might mean
(chorus)
What if hes an angel sent here from heaven
And hes makin certain that youre doin your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you gonna pass that test?
You can go on with your day to day
Tryin to forget what you saw in his face
Knowin deep down couldve been his savin grace
What if hes an angel?
Theres a man and theres a woman
Livin right above you in apartment G
Theres a lot of noise coming through the ceiling
And it dont sound like harmony
You can sit there with your TV turned up
While the words in his anger fly
But come tomorrow when you see her with her shades on
Can you look her in the eye?
(chorus)
What if hes an angel sent here from heaven
And hes makin certain that youre doin your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you gonna pass that test?
You can go on with your day to day
Tryin to forget what you saw in his face
Knowin deep down couldve been his savin grace
What if hes an angel?
A little girl on daddys lap
Hidin her disease with a baseball cap
You can turn the channel most people do
But what if you were sittin in her daddys shoes?
(chorus)
What if hes an angel sent here from heaven
And hes makin certain that youre doin your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you gonna pass that test?
You can go on with your day to day
Tryin to forget what you saw in his face
Knowin deep down couldve been his savin grace
What if hes an angel?
