It isn't an official chord, but I like to play the F in the "silver angels" refrain while continuing to hold the C, so the finger used to play the C chord is held down throughout the F and G7sus4. Feel free to play a straight F if you prefer.

C F G7sus4 C
Sweet silver angels over the sea
C F G7sus4 C
Please come down flying low for me

F C
One time I trusted a stranger
F C
Cause I heard his sweet song
Bb
And it was gently enticing me
Am
Though there was something wrong
Fsus4 G7sus4 G7
But when I turned he was gone

Am C F
Blinding me his song remains remindin' me
D C Bb F
He's a bandit and a heart breaker
D C F C
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker

C F G7sus4 C
Sweet silver angels over the sea
C F G7sus4 C
Please come down flying low for me

F C
He wages war with the devil
F C
A pistol by his side
Bb
And though he chases him out windows
Am
And won't give him a place to hide
Fsus4 G7sus4 G7
He keeps his door open wide

Am C F
Fighting him he lights a lamp inviting him
D C Bb F
He's a bandit and a heart breaker
D C F C
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker

C F G7sus4 C
Sweet silver angels over the sea
C F G7sus4 C
Please come down flying low for me

F C
I heard the thunder come rumbling
F C
The light never looked so dim
Bb
I see the junction get nearer
Am
And danger is in the wind
Fsus4 Gsus4 G
And either road's looking grim

Am C F
Hiding me I flee desire dividing me
D C Bb F
He's a bandit and a heart breaker
D C Bb F
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
D C F C
Yes Jesus was a cross maker

C F G7sus4 C
Sweet silver angels over the sea
C F G7sus4 C
Please come down flying low for me


F C
One time I trusted a stranger
F C
Cause I heard his sweet song
Bb
And it was gently enticing me
Am
Though there was something wrong
Fsus4 G7sus4 G7
But when I turned he was gone


Am C F
Blindin' me his song remains remindin' me
D C Bb F
He's a bandit and a heart breaker
D C Bb F
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
D C Bb F
Yes Jesus was a cross maker
D C Bb F
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
D C Bb F
Yes Jesus was a cross maker
D C Bb F
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
D C Bb F
Yes Jesus was a cross maker
