Verse
F# C# F# C#
I don't know if there’s a God up in heaven
G# A#m F#
But I met an angel today
F# C#
Though her wings might be hidden
F# C#
'Cause I don't see no feathers
G# A#m F#
She’s made of light and of grace
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F# C#
And so she took my hand
G# A#m
And she lead me down
F# G#
As we sat by the water's edge
[Chorus]
A#m G# F# C#
And I said, "Matthew's daughter
G# A#m F# A#m
Heaven knows I'm a sinner and I've made mistakes
A#m G# F# C#
So bathe me in water
G# A#m F# C#
Come and dive in the river, you can start again"
F# C# F# C# G# A#m F# C#
[Verse 2]
F# C# F# C#
No, I don't see no halo but I know that it's there
G# A#m F# C#
Resting one inch over her auburn hair
F# C# F# C#
And I told her my secrets, the darkest I have
G# A#m F#
And I swear that she sees me for all that I am
[Chorus]
A#m G# F# C#
And I said, "Matthew's daughter
G# A#m F# A#m
Heaven knows I’m a sinner and I’ve made mistakes
A#m G# F# C#
So bathe me in water
G# A#m F# C#
Come and dive in the river, we can start again"

And then she took my hand, said, "My love, don't you worry
F# C# G#
It only means there’s a heart in your chest
A#m G# F# C#
Ooo, so follow me love and come away with me
F# G#
To where the sun rises in the west"
[Chorus]
A#m G# F# C#
Then I said, "Matthew's daughter
G# A#m F# A#m
Heaven knows I'm a sinner and I've made mistakes

So bathe me in water
G# A#m F# C#
Come and dive in the river, you can start again"

So bathe me in water"
