[Intro] C G Am G 2x [Verse 1]
C        G              Am        G
An angel walked into my home today

C        G                    Am     G
She laid her wings down on my table

C                       G               Am    G
And I don’t know how or why she came my way

C             G                   Am   G          C
Even though I know my tongues not able to tell me why
G Am G
C          G                Am         G
She's everything that I was hoping for

C               G              Am        G
If I could only hold her in my arms ohh

C                    G                       Am                G        C
Perhaps a better man I’d come to be when her angel dust rubbed off on me

     G     Am    G
It’d do no harm
[Chorus]
F                       G                        C               Am
My only hope is that it stays this way for I’m a demon in saints clothing

F                      G                        C              Am
And I could never reveal myself for I’d just blow my chance at holding

F                     G                        C                 Am
Her close to me the way it ought to be but you can't meditate for knowing

F                              G                     C
That a sinner and a saint is a story that just ain't
G Am G [Verse 2]
C          G               Am           G
And in the growing night I feel the pain

     C              G                   Am    G
As I list the deeds of my life's tragic fable

C                      G              Am      G
She sees two sides but I just see the shame

C             G                   Am      G
Even though I know my tongues not able

G          C       G   Am  G
To tell me why

C         G               Am          G
I sat her down attempt to tell her why

C                       G                 Am      G
The tears just wouldn’t stop my eyes from showing

C                             G            Am      G
It doesn’t matter what you’ve done was her reply

C                       G                   Am        G
If you give up now this chance you would be throwing
[Chorus]
F                       G                        C               Am
My only hope is that it stays this way for I’m a demon in saints clothing

F                      G                        C              Am
And I could never reveal myself for I’d just blow my chance at holding

F                     G                        C                 Am
Her close to me the way it ought to be but you can't meditate for knowing

F                              G                     C
That a sinner and a saint is a story that just ain't
G Am G [Outro]
F        G          C
Close my eyes and I slip away

F              G              C     Am
That forgotten time that just fades away

F         G      C      Am
And all I see is fade’n away

Dm              G
But, She sees me

G
She sees inside of me
C G Am G C G Am G C
