C Am Em F C G x2 C Am He searched for those wings that he knew Em that this angel should have at her back. F And although he can't find them C he really don't mind G because he knows they'll grow back. C Am And he reached for that halo that he knows Em that she had when she first caught his eye. F Although his hand came back empty C he's really not worried G because he knows it still shines. [Chorus] F G I can't promise that I'll grow those wings C G F or keep this tarnished halo shined F G but I'll never betray your trust C angel mine. C Am I search all the time on the ground Em for our shadows cast side by side. F C Just to remind me that I haven't gone crazy G that you exist and are mine C Am And I know that your skin is as warm and as real Em as that smile in your eyes. F C But I F have to keep touching and smelling G and tasting for fear it's all lies. [Chorus] F G I can't promise that I'll grow those wings C G F or keep this tarnished halo shined F G but I'll never betray your trust C angel mine. C Am Last night I awoke from the deepest of sleeps Em with your voice in my head. F And I could tell by your breathing C that you were still sleeping G I re-peated the words that you had said. [Chorus] F G I can't promise that I'll grow those wings C G F or keep this tarnished halo shined F G but I'll never betray your trust C angel mine. F G I can't promise that I'll grow those wings C G F or keep this tarnished halo shined F G but I'll never betray your trust C angel mine. C Am Em F C G (repeat and fade)
