Verse
D A D A
I don't know if there’s a God up in heaven
E F#m D
But I met an angel today
D A
Though her wings might be hidden
D A
'Cause I don't see no feathers
E F#m D
She’s made of light and of grace
[Pre-Chorus 1]
D A
And so she took my hand
E F#m
And she lead me down
D E
As we sat by the water's edge
[Chorus]
F#m E D A
And I said, "Matthew's daughter
E F#m D F#m
Heaven knows I'm a sinner and I've made mistakes
F#m E D A
So bathe me in water
E F#m D A
Come and dive in the river, you can start again"
D A D A E F#m D A
[Verse 2]
D A D A
No, I don't see no halo but I know that it's there
E F#m D A
Resting one inch over her auburn hair
D A D A
And I told her my secrets, the darkest I have
E F#m D
And I swear that she sees me for all that I am
[Chorus]
F#m E D A
And I said, "Matthew's daughter
E F#m D F#m
Heaven knows I’m a sinner and I’ve made mistakes
F#m E D A
So bathe me in water
E F#m D A
Come and dive in the river, we can start again"
[Bridge]
D A E F#m
And then she took my hand, said, "My love, don't you worry
D A E
It only means there’s a heart in your chest
F#m E D A
Ooo, so follow me love and come away with me
D E
To where the sun rises in the west"
[Chorus]
F#m E D A
Then I said, "Matthew's daughter
E F#m D F#m
Heaven knows I'm a sinner and I've made mistakes
F#m E D A
So bathe me in water
E F#m D A
Come and dive in the river, you can start again"
[Final Chorus]
F#m E D A
And I said, "Matthew’s daughter
E F#m D F#m
Heaven knows I'm a sinner and I've made mistakes
F#m E D A
So bathe me in water"
E F#m D A
And she said to me, "Darling, lemme ease your pain
N.A
Come and dive in the water, you can start again"
