Am                            G
Once upon a time there was an angel
         F                               Am
She did shine, she did shine, and she didn't shine
                        G
Somehow she got herself tangled
       F                 Am
In his heart, and in his mind

( F  Am  F  Am )
                                C
She laid down her wings and her halo
            F                      Am
Fate to the ground, to the ground to the ground
                              C
Try as she might she couldn't dim her glow
       F                        Am
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
         C                            Am
With the writing on the walls up in the sky
          G                    Em
There are thousands of reasons why
         F                       Am
But they tangled her glow like a line
        C                     G  F  Am
And her heart knew it was time

Am                              G
She picked up her spade and her apron
       F                          Am
With a smile, with a smile, with a smile
                             G
With every moment, there were taken
        F                        Am
Feeling fine, feeling fine, feeling fine
  C            Am           Em
Dear heart, dear soul, dear memories
         G
Please remember me
        C               Am              Em  G
Made of light, fill the sky, I'm flying free
         C                             Am
With the writing on the walls, up in the sky
          G                    Em
There are thousands of reasons why
        F                          Am
But the tangled of her glow like a line
        C                     G
And her heart knew it was time
              C
Knew it was time
