Key:
C F C F G [Verse 1]
C Am There was a time when the clocks all stopped
F C Bb When the world just went away
F G I didn't know if it was night or day [Verse 2]
C Am F C Bb I didn't know if there were clouds or fire in the sky
F G Didn't want to live if I could die
F C Dm7 G Bb Somewhere down the line I found myself up on that road
F G Where the devil led me, I would go
C Am F C Bb I had sold my soul for pleasure, thinking it would last
Dm G All my hopes had vanished in the past [Chorus]
F D7 F C Lost, I was lost like a child in the dark
Am C F Drifting away with the tide
Continues after the ad
D7 F C God only knows how I made it back home
Bb F C F C F G I must have an angel on my side [Verse 3]
C Am F C Bb In the morning I'd wake up and shake my weary head
F G Wonder where I'd been and what I'd said
F C Dm7 G Was I on the River Styx for all eternity?
Bb F G Would I drown forever in the sea?
C Am F C Bb Why did anyone keep living, what was there to find?
F G I wanted just a little peace of mind [Chorus]
F D7 F C Lost, I was lost like a child in the dark
Am C F Drifting away with the tide
D7 F C God only knows how I made it back home
Bb F C F C F G I must have an angel on my side [Verse 4]
C Am F C Never had a flash of lightning comin' right at me
Bb F G One day I just know, I woke up free
F C Dm7 G The day was breaking, I was living, I couldn't tell you why
Bb F G First I laughed and then I learned to cry
C Am F C Bb Something in my heart was saying, you can reach the sky
F G You just gotta live until you die [Chorus]
F D7 F C Lost, I was lost like a child in the dark
Am C F Drifting away with the tide
D7 F C God only knows how I made it back home
Bb F C I must have an angel on my side
Bb F I must have an angel
Bb F I must have an angel
Em Bb F G C I must have an angel on my side___
