Tin Can Angel

Intro:
C Dm Bb F C

[Verse 1]
       C                          Dm
Flyin’ east with the night on our heels
          G                             C
Cheat the time and the distance and the light
                                   Dm
That sky ain’t my friend, but I’ll see her again
            Bb                    G
She’s gonna hold me in her arms tonight

[Chorus]
G              C       Dm
Send me down a tin can angel
         G               C
Will she rock me on the wind?
                     Dm
Gonna need a tin can angel
               G                       C    C C C
‘Cause I’ll be sleepin’ in the clouds again

[Verse 2]
                              Dm
I want your wings to carry me onward
         G                C
And your halo to light my way
                                Dm
And your call to the maker, the giver, the taker
    Bb                          G
A petition for the words that I prayed

[Chorus]
               C       Dm
Send me down a tin can angel
         G              C
Will she rock me on the wind?
                     Dm
Gonna need a tin can angel
               G                       C    C
‘Cause I’ll be sleepin’ in the clouds again

[Bridge]
    Bb                        F
You know where the sparrow is falling
   C
My fear can fly no place but high
   Bb                         F
So reserve for the road-weary servent a helper
Fm                    G    G G G G
Someone from Heaven’s side

[Chorus]
               C       Dm

         G              C
Will she rock me on the wind?
                     Dm
Gonna need a tin can angel
               G                       Bb
‘Cause I’ll be sleepin’ in the clouds again
