G# D#
There’s a man standing on a corner
Fm D#
With a sign sayin’ “will work for food”
C# G#
You know the man you see him every mornin’
A#m D#
The one you never give your money to
G# D#
You can sit there with your window rolled up
Fm D#
Wonderin’ when the lights are gonna turn green
C# G#
Never knowin’ what a couple more bucks
A#m D#
In his pocket might mean…
(chorus)
G# D#
What if he’s an angel sent here from heaven
Fm D#
And he’s makin’ certain that you’re doin’ your best
C# G#
To take the time to help one another
A#m D#
Brother are you gonna pass that test?
G# D#
You can go on with your day to day
Fm D#
Tryin’ to forget what you saw in his face
C# G# A#m D#
Knowin’ deep down could’ve been his savin’ grace
G#
What if he’s an angel?
G# D#
There’s a man and there’s a woman
Fm D#
Livin’ right above you in apartment G
C# G#
There’s a lot of noise coming through the ceiling
A#m D#
And it don’t sound like harmony
G# D#
You can sit there with your TV turned up
Fm D#
While the words in his anger fly
C# G#
But come tomorrow when you see her with her shades on
A#m D#
Can you look her in the eye?
(chorus)
G# D#
What if he’s an angel sent here from heaven
Fm D#
And he’s makin’ certain that you’re doin’ your best
C# G#
To take the time to help one another
A#m D#
Brother are you gonna pass that test?
G# D#
You can go on with your day to day
Fm D#
Tryin’ to forget what you saw in his face
C# G# A#m D#
Knowin’ deep down could’ve been his savin’ grace
G#
What if he’s an angel?
C# G#
A little girl on daddy’s lap
A#m D#
Hidin’ her disease with a baseball cap
C# G#
You can turn the channel most people do
A#m D#
But what if you were sittin’ in her daddy’s shoes?
(chorus)
G# D#
What if he’s an angel sent here from heaven
Fm D#
And he’s makin’ certain that you’re doin’ your best
C# G#
To take the time to help one another
A#m D#
Brother are you gonna pass that test?
G# D#
You can go on with your day to day
Fm D#
Tryin’ to forget what you saw in his face
C# G# A#m D#
Knowin’ deep down could’ve been his savin’ grace
G#
What if he’s an angel?
