Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]God put a [G]song in the [F#]heart of an [Bm]angel
An[F#]d so[Em]ftly she[F#] san[A]g it to me[D]
You know, I get to thinkin' a lot of times about
back when I was a [G]boy, the old home
place where I [D]grew up, of the days both [Bm]good and bad,
while my over[E]alls were hand -me -downs,
my shoes [A]were, they were full of holes.
I used to walk four miles to school [D]every day through the rain,
through the sleep, and the [G]cold.
I've seen the nights when my daddy [D]would cry
for the things that his family would need,
but all he ever got [A]was a badland farm
and [D]seven hungry mouse to feed.
And yet, yet our home fire
[A]never flickered once,
Cause when all [D]of these things went wrong,
Mama took the helm down and
Mama sang a song.
What a friend we have in
[G]Jesus.
Oh, [D]I've been rocked
to sleep a many a night,
to the tune of what a friend [A]and come morning
rock of ages why it would [D]wake
me gently once again and then dad
he'd reach up and he'd take the
Bible [G]down
and he'd read it read it loud and long and I
always felt [D]that maybe our home
was blessed when daddy would [A]say mama
sing a song [D]now let's see sister left
home first I guess and there was
Bob an[G]d
Tommy and the last was
Dan but then dad's hair was
turning white and I [C]had to be my mama's little man but it
seemed that his daddy's back grew weak
[G]my mother's faith just grew that much stronger [D]and
those were the greatest days of [G]all yes they are
When
Mama sang the song
[F#]Blood of [G]angels
[C]Cleft for [G]me
Let me hide
My[C#]self [D]in
[G]Thee
[Em]I gu[D]ess the house is still standing
I don't get to go back there [G]anymore,
at least much
No voices [D]is left to fill those old halls
I bet there ain't even no steps
to grace the [G]floor
Cause you see my mama
sings in heaven now
Up around
God's golden throne
But I'll always believe
that this world is [C]a
Better place to live because one time
My mama sang a song.
Precious memories flood my soul.
