David Knopfler - If God Could Make The Angels
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: F C F C G C F C F C F C G C F
C F
So many songs about angels
C G F
It seems god makes them with his hands
C F C F
So I guess this mess of falling angels
C G C G
Must fit his immortal plan
F C Dm F
How every flower should open
C G
How every crippled bird should fly
F C
And a cry of love from the deepest darkest ocean
F C G
Flies up through his brightest broken sky
F C G F
But I can't point no finger
C G
You can't do nothing more to me, see
F C
Here's my broken hammer
F C F
I can't play A-flat
C G
But I'm still playing in that key
F C F
And at the holy saint's asylum
C G
There's this patron for lost souls
F C
Who've perjured grail for the money
F C
Mammon's kingdom and his power
F C G
All is painted glory, yeah, but glory holds a key
F C
And here's this broken hammer
F C
Can't fix this old piano
F C G
Seems sometimes that you can't get enough of me
F C F C F
Hurting
C G
As the hammer hits the key
F C F C F
But if god could make them angels
G F
With only mud and dust and sand
C F C F
Making blood from living water
C G F
Man, I think I'd understand
C F C F
He'd be in every flower that opens
C G
And in the first new breath of spring
F C
In the bird song high in the sky
F C
Sailing clear across the oceans
F C G
Some hear his voice in every bell that rings
C F C F
They say it's god who made the angels
C G F
From infinity and sand
C F
But if Heaven made the angels
G F C F
Who in Hell made man?
C F
If god could make angels
C G
If god could make angels
C
Why in hell make man?
