Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]We'[Bb]d fin[C]ished dinner,
and I'd come into the [Am]den,
turned [F]on the TV,
and she walked in,
kissed [Bb]me on the cheek
like a million [G]times be[C]fore.
She said, I know it's late,
but if you don't mind,
my shopping's [Dm]gotten a little be[Bb]hind,
and I think [Dm]I'll drive down
to the grocery [G]store.
I didn't [C]look up, I just nodded, okay,
asked her if she'd hand me an ashtray,
and [F]she did.
I [Bb]reached out and squeezed her hand,
and then [C]she left.
And I [Am]shuddered a minute
[Dm]to think of my[G] world without her in it[C].
And I [F]re assuringly sought the [C]touch
of my wedding band.
I [G]must have been dozing
because I [C]didn't hear the door,
and I thought, that's strange,
[F]I've never done that before.
[Bb]But I looked up and she
was stand[G]ing by my [C]chair,
kind of sneaked in on me, I said,
and she smiled and nodded [Dm]her head.
And I told her that [G]she looked
like an angel standing there.
[C]For a long moment she
didn't say a thing,
and then she caressed
[G]her gold wedding [F]ring,
and I thought I saw a
[Bb]teardrop in her eye.
[C]You'll never know how much I love you,
she [Am]said.[Dm]
An[G]d then I thought of the many years
[C]that we had been wed,
and I [F]told her that no one could be
[C]as happy as [Am]I.[C]
Then the strangest feeling filled that room,
not one of happiness, but one [F]of bloom.
And for [Bb]the first time in my life,
I saw sadness [C]in her face.
I reached out to touch her,
but she drew away
and told me again that
[Dm]ours was a love
that time could never [G]erase.
[C]And then I thought I heard a
thousand voices singing,
and I realized that it was a telephone ringing.
[F]That's when I saw the halo
surround her [Bb]golden hair.
Trembling, [C]I picked up the receiver
and I heard a cold voice
saying there'd [Dm]been a wreck
out [G]on the highway.
And I [C]knew that when I looked back[F],
[C]she wouldn't be there
Because [F]this [Em]was a[F]n [C]angel's
[Am]way of s[Dm]ay i[G]ng goodbye.
[F]
