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

So bathe me in water
C# D#m B F#
Come and dive in the river, we can start again"

It only means there’s a heart in your chest

Ooo, so follow me love and come away with me
B C#
To where the sun rises in the west"

Come and dive in the river, you can start again"
