Intro: A C#m | Dmaj | A C#m | D

           A              C#m
I took the supermarket flowers
               Dmaj
From the windowsill,
            A         C#m
I threw the day old tea
              Dmaj F#m
From the cup,
                E         D             A
Packed up the photo album Matthew had made,
    D           E7                    A
Memories of a life that’s been loved.

             A             C#madd13-
Took the “Get well soon” cards
            Dadd9
And stuffed animals,
           A            C#madd13-
Poured the old ginger beer
               Dadd9 F#m
Down the sink,
           E
Dad always told me:
           D                 A
“Don’t you cry when you’re down,”
                   D
But mum, there’s a tear
        E                A
Every time that I blink.

 Bm           D
   Oh, I’m in pieces,
         A         E           Bm
   It’s tearing me up but I know,
                  D
   A heart that’s broke
         A                       E
   Is a heart that’s been loved,
   So I’ll sing:

Chorus:
     A        C#madd13-
     Hallelujah,
   Dadd9         E
     You were an angel
            A                C#madd13-
     In the shape of my mum.
   Dadd9         E
     When I fell down,
                    F#m
     You’d be there holding me up,
   Dmaj           A           Esus4
     Spread your wings as you go
               F#m           D
     And when God takes you back,
                  A       E
     He’ll say: “Hallelujah, you’re home.”

Instrumental: A C#m | Dadd9 Dadd9 Dadd9 E
              A Aadd9 C#m C#madd13-
              Dadd9 Dadd9 Dadd9 E

  E              A             C#madd13-
I fluffed the pillows made the beds,
              Dadd9
Stacked the chairs up,
E           A
Folded your nightgowns
  C#m         Dadd9 E  F#m
Neatly in a case,
               E
John said he’d drive,
             D                 A
Then put his hand on my cheek,
            D              E         A
And wiped a tear from the side of my face.

 Bm                D
   And I hope that I see
        A              E               Bm
   The world as you did, ‘cause I know
               D
   A life with love
          A                E
   Is a life that’s been lived,
   So I’ll sing:

Chorus:
     A        C#madd13-
     Hallelujah,
   Dadd9         E
     You were an angel
            A                C#madd13-
     In the shape of my mum.
   Dadd9         E
     When I fell down,
                    F#m
     You’d be there holding me up,
   Dmaj           A           Esus4
     Spread your wings as you go
               F#m           D
     And when God takes you back,
                  A       E7
     He’ll say: “Hallelujah, you’re home.”

     A        C#m
     Hallelujah,
   Dadd9
     You were an angel
            A                C#m
     In the shape of my mum.
   Dadd9                       F#m
     You got to see the person I have become,
   D              A            Esus4
     Spread your wings and I know
                F#m          D
     That when God took you back,
                A       Esus4            A
     He said: “Hallelujah, you’re home.”
