Sending Me Angels Lyrics

Performed by Kathy Mattea on "Love Travels"

Intro: C F C Am G C
I walked down to the river. Stood on the shore.
Seems like the devil's always tryin' to get in my door.
Just when I thought I couldn't take any more
here he comes again my friend.
He keeps sending me angels from up on high.
He keeps sending me an-gels to teach me to fly.
He keeps sending me angels sweet and true.
He keeps sending me an-gels just like you.
As I stand on this mountain face to the wind
amazed at the number of times we've all sinned
and countless enemies that should've been friends
O O Oh, here he comes again
He keeps sending me angels. Here they come a flyin'
He keeps sending me an-gels to keep me from cryin'
He keeps sending me angels so I won't be blue.
He keeps sending me an-gels just like you.
Interlude: C G G G G F
Some say that it's comin'. I say it's already here.
The love that's among us through the joy and the fear.
When I look in your eyes, everything is so clear.
My friend, here he comes again
He keeps sending me angels from up on high.
He keeps sending me an-gels to teach me to fly.
He keeps sending me angels sweet and true.
He keeps sending me an-gels just like
Sending me angels from up on high
He keeps sending me an-gels to teach me to fly
He keeps sending me angels sweet and true
He keeps sending me an-gels just like you.
Ending: F C Am G C
