F                  C
I guess there's no time
     F       C
When I can't recall
     F       C          G            Am
That picture hanging up there on the wall
F                  C
Of a little girl walking
F                 C
By a snake in the grass
 F       C          G                 Am
And her Guardian Angel is guiding her past

[Verse 2]
F                  C
Well, I lost a big sister
     F       C
When the picture was new
F       C          G            Am
Nineteen fifty-six just before I turned two

F                  C
I took part of my memory,
     F       C
Added stories and things
F       C          G            Am
I made her my Angel, she has her own wings
F       C          G                 C
I made her my Angel, she has her own wings

[Chorus]
F                      Am
She would have held my hand,
F                        Am
She would have called my name
F       C          G                 Am
Too young to remember I miss her the same
F           C      G              C
My Guardian Angel, I miss her the same

[Verse 3]
F                  C
Don't know much about her
      F           C
There's not much to know
F       C          G                 Am
Just six years of living then she had to go
F                  C
My parents they grieved
      F            C
Somehow they moved on
F       C          G                 Am
And I grew up knowing my sister was gone

[Verse 4]
F              C
I found an old letter
      F                C
That my mom wrote that year
F       C          G                 Am                      
And each time I read it I shed a new tear
F                   C
It helps me to feel some
        F               C
Of what my parents felt then
F       C          G                 Am                      
I think of my own kids and feel it again
F       C          G                 C
I think of my own kids and feel it again

[Chorus]
F                     Am
I would have held her hand
F                   Am
I know I called her name
F       C          G                 Am
My Guardian Angel I miss her the same
F                     Am
She would have held my hand
F                     Am
She would have called my name
F       C          G                 Am
Too young to remember her, miss her the same
F       C          G              C
My Guardian Angel, I miss her the same

[Verse 5]
F                  C
I guess there's no time
F            C
When I can't recall
F             C          G            Am
The picture a hanging up there on the wall
