D Dmaj7 G G (2x) [Verse]
D Dmaj7 G Tell the man who repairs the wings for angels
D That one has fallen among the
Dmaj7 G mortals on Bleeker Street
D Dmaj7 G I lent a hand, she looked up at the steeples
D Dmaj7 As if to blame them for the
G pavement beneath her feet
Em She said, "I never much liked flying,
G but the job requires trying
Em The hard part's avoiding
G buildings and concrete" [Chorus]
D Dmaj7 Spread the news, 'cause
G there's an angel in Manhattan
D Call out the paparazzi and the
Dmaj7 G television crews
Bm A Let the people choose
G Would a little Faith come to harm them?
Bm A Print the headlines up in the New
G York Daily News
Em It was just another day
G Like any other, other day
D Dmaj7 G A Tuesday afternoon [Verse]
D Dmaj7 I hailed a cab, a crowd
G gathered as it pulled beside us

D And somebody tore at her wings, but
Dmaj7 G I helped her safely inside
D Dmaj7 "I'm much obliged," she said, but
G the driver he looked shaken
D He said, "You're fakin', lady,
Dmaj7 G who's taking who for a ride"
Em But then we floated up over the traffic,
G she turned the radio to static,
Em And she sang to him
G in Billy Holiday's sweet voice [Chorus]
Bm A Spread the news, 'cause there's
G an angel in Manhattan
Bm Call out the paparazzi and the
A G television crews
D Dmaj7 Hey if you choose, would a
G little Faith come to harm you?
D Print the headlines up in the
Dmaj7 G New York Daily News
Em It was just another day
G What will the mayor say?
D Dmaj7 G "Good afternoon.
D Dmaj7 G Oh, good afternoon." [Bridge]
G We flew down the length of
A Fifth Avenue
Bm A Man, she threw out miracles, it
G was a hysterical ride
G And if the crowd on the
A sidewalk looked skeptical
Bm A She took the blue right out of
G their cynical eyes
Em "It's all in what you feel inside" [Verse]
D Dmaj7 She shook the mayor's hand,
G and he declared That he'd hold a press conference,
D The fans and protesters blocked the
Dmaj7 G stairs to city hall
D "I'd like to thank you all," he
Dmaj7 said
G And when she stepped before the cameras
D It felt like a trial, but she
Dmaj7 G smiled as the questions were called,
Em "What do you say to detractors,
G who claim you're just some actor?"
Em She said, "The question here, is
G 'Do I believe in you?'"
Em It was just another day
G Like any other, other day
Bm A G Spread the news, I saw an angel fly from Manhattan
Bm In front of paparazzi, in front of
A G television crews
D Dmaj7 And me I choose... I know a
G little Faith wouldn't harm me
D Despite what they print in the
Dmaj7 G New York Daily News
Em It was just another day
G Like any other, other day [Otro]
D Dmaj7 G Like any day D Dmaj7 G x 2
