Intro: D F#m | Gmaj | D F#m | G

           D              F#m
I took the supermarket flowers
               Gmaj
From the windowsill,
            D         F#m
I threw the day old tea
              Gmaj Bm
From the cup,
                A         G             D
Packed up the photo album Matthew had made,
    G           A7                    D
Memories of a life that’s been loved.

             D             F#madd13-
Took the “Get well soon” cards
            Gadd9
And stuffed animals,
           D            F#madd13-
Poured the old ginger beer
               Gadd9 Bm
Down the sink,
           A
Dad always told me:
           G                 D
“Don’t you cry when you’re down,”
                   G
But mum, there’s a tear
        A                D
Every time that I blink.

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

Chorus:
     D        F#madd13-
     Hallelujah,
   Gadd9         A
     You were an angel
            D                F#madd13-
     In the shape of my mum.
   Gadd9         A
     When I fell down,
                    Bm
     You’d be there holding me up,
   Gmaj           D           Asus4
     Spread your wings as you go
               Bm            G
     And when God takes you back,
                  D       A
     He’ll say: “Hallelujah, you’re home.”

Instrumental: D F#m | Gadd9 Gadd9 Gadd9 A
              D Dadd9 F#m F#madd13-
              Gadd9 Gadd9 Gadd9 A

  A              D             F#madd13-
I fluffed the pillows made the beds,
              Gadd9
Stacked the chairs up,
A           D
Folded your nightgowns
  F#m         Gadd9 A  Bm
Neatly in a case,
               A
John said he’d drive,
             G                 D
Then put his hand on my cheek,
            G              A         D
And wiped a tear from the side of my face.

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

Chorus:
     D        F#madd13-
     Hallelujah,
   Gadd9         A
     You were an angel
            D                F#madd13-
     In the shape of my mum.
   Gadd9         A
     When I fell down,
                    Bm
     You’d be there holding me up,
   Gmaj           D           Asus4
     Spread your wings as you go
               Bm            G
     And when God takes you back,
                  D       A7
     He’ll say: “Hallelujah, you’re home.”

     Hallelujah,

     You were an angel
            D                F#m
     In the shape of my mum.
   Gadd9                       Bm
     You got to see the person I have become,
   G              D            Asus4
     Spread your wings and I know
                Bm           G
     That when God took you back,
                D       Asus4            D
     He said: “Hallelujah, you’re home.”
