G D C D
When I first saw your face, it was Sunday
G D C
And in my heart it will always stay with me
G D C Am
You had the face of saint in the cathedral /++++++/
G D C
Up on the steps you stood and I in the street
G D C D
I used to think I had friends - and many
G D C
Funny how I can't think of one of their names
G D C Am
And suddenly I think I feel slightly religous
G D C
Can I walk along beside you to today
G D C D
Angels don't lie, tell me why, did you leave heaven
G Em D C
What here on earth could make you leave
G D C Am
Tell me true, was it love, answer my question
G D C
Did you leave heaven for a love found in me
G D C D
You left behind your family and money
G D C
All in town know your family's name
G D C Am
Look at me its plain to see - my pockets empty
G D C
But brighter than gold in my heart burns a flame
G D C D
Angels don't lie, tell me why, did you leave heaven
G Em D C
What here on earth could make you leave
G D C Am
Tell me true, was it love, answer my question
G D C
Did you leave heaven for a love found in me
