[Verse 1]
G G G C
Oh, a man is placed upon the steps, and a baby cries
G C G G
And high above, you can hear the church bells start to ring
G G C C
And the heaviness, oh the heaviness, down it settles
G C G G
And somewhere you can hear a mother sing
Am Am
Then it's one foot, and then the other
Am Am G
As you step out on the road
C
You step out on that road
G G
How much weight? How much?
Am
Then it's how long and how far
Am Am Am
And how many times?
D C G/B
Oh, before it's too late...
[Chorus]
D C
Calling all angels
C G G
Calling all angels
D D
Walk me through this one
G G
Don't leave me alone
C C
Calling all angels
Em Em
Calling all angels
D C
We're tryin', we're hopin'
G D G G
But we're not sure how it goes
[Verse 2]
C C
Oh, and every day you gaze upon the sunset
G C G G
With such love and intensity
G G C C
Why it's, it's almost as if you could only crack the code
G
And then you might finally understand what it all
C C G
What it all means
Am
Oh, and if you could
Am
Do you think you would
Am Am G C G G
Trade it all, all the pain and suffering?
Am Am
Oh, but then you'd miss the beauty
Am Am D
Of the light upon this earth, and...
C G/B D
And the sweetness of believin'
[Chorus]
C C
Calling all angels
G G
Calling all angels
D D
Walk me through this one
G G
Don't leave me alone
C C
Calling all angels
Em Em
Calling all angels
D C
'Cause we're tryin', we're hopin'
G/B D
But, we're not sure
C C
Calling all angels, calling all angels
G G
Calling all angels, calling all angels
D D
Walk me through this one
G G
Don't leave me alone
C C
Calling all angels
Em Em
Calling all angels
D C
'Cause we're tryin', we're hopin'
G C
We're hurtin', we're lovin'
D C
We're cryin', we're callin'
G D G
But we're not sure how it goes...
