Radney Foster - Everyday Angel guitar chord

Everyday Angel

By Radney Foster

F C Am G F (2 Times)

F C

Miss Laura fed the hungry in the church house basement

Am G F

After she’d retired from teaching school

F C

She'd pick my son up in her arms on Sundays

Am G F

To teach him all about the golden rule

F C

I heard those stories about Selma and Tuskeegee

Am G F

How she helped Martin fill the jails

F C

All I know is she had the strength of ten grown men

G F

Even though her hands were small and frail

Chorus 1:

C G

She was an everyday angel, the kind without wings

Am F

Walking around in this world, just like you and me

F C G F

Angel, livin' out of love, the kind of people we could use a lot more of

C G Am F

Just an everyday angel, everyday angel

Marilyn was waiting outside my old man's office

Trying to hide the bruises on her face

He said you don't have to get knocked around anymore

You can come and stay at our place

I didn't know 'til I had kids of my own

But I learned a big lesson that day

What you do means a whole lot more

Than anything you have to say

Chorus 2:

Go be an everyday angel, the kind without wings

Walking around in this world, just like you and me

Angel, livin' out love, the kind of people we could use a lot more of

Just an everyday angel, everyday angel

Dave was gonna meet his wife

In a coffee shop in Brooklyn

When he heard the alarm sing out

9/11,he was running up stairs

That he never got back down, down, d-o-w-n

Chorus 3:

He was an everyday angel, earnin¹ his wings

Trying to save people who are just like you and me

Angel, living out love, the kind of people we could use a lot more of

Just an everyday angel, everyday angel, everyday angel, everyday angel
