Verse
Amaj
When Winter falls
F#m Fadd9
Next year, I'll be holding on
F#m
To anything nailed down
Amaj F#m
As for being patient, with fate
Fadd9
and all, it's getting old.
F#m
And my mind is slowly changing
Amaj
I'm calling all my oldest friends,
F#m
Saying "sorry for this mess we're in,"
Fadd9 F#m
And I'm waiting, waiting
Amaj
For the Sun to come and melt this snow,
F#m Fadd9 F#m
wash away the pain, and give me back control, control.
CHORUS:
Amaj
An angel got his wings,
F#m Fadd9 F#m
And we'll hold our heads up knowing that he's fine.
Amaj7 F#m
We'd all be lucky to have a love like that in a lifetime.
VERSE TWO:
Amaj
Should we still set his plate?
F#m
Should we still save his chair?
Fadd9
Should we still buy him gifts?
F#m
And if we don't, did we not care?
Amaj
It makes you think about the life you've led,
F#m
Shit you've done, things you've said.
Fadd9 F#m
And it's grounding, grounding.
Amaj
I've been feeling three feet tall this month,
F#m
hardly indestructible.
Fadd9 F#m
But the snow melts, and the rhythm still goes on.
CHORUS:
Amaj
An angel got his wings,
F#m Fadd9 F#m
And we'll hold our heads up knowing that he's fine.
Amaj7 F#m
We'd all be lucky to have a love like that in a lifetime.
Amaj
Friends stay side by side,'
F#m Fadd9 F#m
In life and death you've always stole my heart,
Amaj7
You'll always mean so much to me,
F#m Amaj
it's hard to believe this
BRIDGE:
Fadd9 A
These nights in vans,
Fadd9 A
These nights in bars,

Don't mean a thing with empty hearts, with empty hearts.

An angel got his wings,

So much to me, it's hard to believe this.
