Verse 1:
      G       G/B        Cadd9
I took the supermarket flowers from the windowsill
      G     G/B      Cadd9
I threw the day old tea from the cup
Em        D      G        Cadd9
  Packed up the photo albums Matthew had made
  Cadd9    D          G
Memories of a life that’s been loved

      G       G/B        Cadd9
I took the get well soon cards and stuffed animals
       G       G/B      Cadd9
I poured the old ginger beer down the sink
Em      D         G          Cadd9
  Dad always told me don’t you cry when you’re down
         Cadd9   D         G
But mum there’s a tear every time that I blink


Pre-Chorus 1:
Am7      C       G     D
  Oh I’m in pieces it’s tearing me up but I know
Am7        C      G           D
  A heart that’s broke is a heart that’s been loved


Chorus 1:
       G     G/B Cadd9
So I’ll sing Hallelujah
      D      G        G/B Cadd9
You were an angel in the shape of my mum
      D
When I fell down you’d be there
Em      C       G       D
Holding me up, spread your wings as you go
     Em        C      G     D
And when God takes you back, he’ll say Hallelujah, you’re home
G G/B Cadd9 D
G G/B Cadd9


Verse 2:
        G          G/B      Cadd9
I fluffed the pillows, stacked the chairs, made the bed up
      G      G/B      Cadd9
Folded your nightgowns neatly in a case
Em        D         G        Cadd9
  John said he’d drive then put his hand on my cheek
      Cadd9     D     G
And wiped a tear from the side of my face


Pre-Chorus 2:
Am7         C     G       D
  And I hope that I see the world as you did cause I know
Am7       C      G          D
  A life with love is a life that’s been lived


Chorus 2:
       G     G/B Cadd9
So I’ll sing Hallelujah
      D      G        G/B Cadd9
You were an angel in the shape of my mum
      D
When I fell down you’d be there
Em      C       G       D
Holding me up, spread your wings as you go
     Em        C      G     D
And when God takes you back, he’ll say Hallelujah, you’re home
G G/B Cadd9

You were an angel in the shape of my mum
             Em      C       G       D
You got to see the person I have become, spread your wings and I know that when
 Em        C       G     D      G
God took you back, he said say Hallelujah, you’re home
