In the Hands of Angels Written by Leon Russell G-A-D-Bm-Em-G-A-D G/D-D D A7 D D7 Well I could have been sick, I could have died G A7 D D7-Em-D7 I could have given up and not tried G A7 F#7 Bm To make it to tomoorrow Em E7 A A7 Like a broken hearted lover D A7 D D7 But there was a brand new start G A7 D D7-Em-D7 And suddenly I was taken G A F#7 Bm New and faraway places Em E7 A A7 And the music I was shaken D A7 D D7 It was a whole new race G A7 D D7-Em-D7 When I woke on that first day G A7 F#7 Bm There was nothing I could say Em E7 A A7 I was in the hands of angels D A7 D D7 Johnny and the governor G A7 D D7-Em Came and brought me to my senses D7 G A7 F#7 Bm They made me feel just like a king Em E7 A A7 Made me lose all my bad defences D A7 D D7 And they knew all the places I needed to go G A7 D D7-Em All of the people I needed to know D7 G A7 F#7 Bm They knew who I needed and who needed me Em E7 And who would come help me A A7 And who would just let me be D A7 D D7 I was in the hands of angels G A7 D D7-Em-D7 Until this very day G A7 F#7-Bm Inside the hands of angels Em E7 A A7 What more can I say D A7 D D7 When you're in the hands of angels G A7 D D7-Em Life is oh so sweet D7 G AA7 F#7 Bm And you feel the love down deep inside Em E7 A A7 Even out there on the street D A7 D D7 In the hands of angels G-A7-D D7-Em-D7 G-A7-F#7-Bm Em-E7-A-A7 G-C-D
