C G
Sweetheart I recall the day I first met you
C
I wonder if you remember the same
G
We talked of the love we shared for each other
C
And longed for the day we'd change your sweet name.
[Chorus]
C G
Oh, I can still hear your voice in the evening
C
I see your sweet face, your blue eyes so bright
G
God took you away and left me so lonely
C
The angels are singing in heaven tonight.
[Verse 2]
C G
As the years passed away we cherished each other
C
No worries or cares to darken our day
G
From our little home up in the Clinch Mountains
C
The savior came down and called you one day.
[Chorus]
C G
Oh, I can still hear your voice in the evening
C
I see your sweet face, your blue eyes so bright
G
God took you away and left me so lonely
C
The angels are singing in heaven tonight.
[Verse 3]
C G
I'll always be true and love you, my darling
C
But I know you are happy and healthy up there
G
When God calls me home I'll meet you in heaven
C
Please wait for me, darling, I'll meet you up there...
[Chorus]
C G
Oh, I can still hear your voice in the evening
C
I see your sweet face, your blue eyes so bright
G
God took you away and left me so lonely
C
The angels are singing in heaven tonight.
