(with capo on 1st fret)
Thereâs a man standing on a corner
With a sign sayinâ âwill work for foodâ
You know the man you see him every morninâ
The one you never give your money to
You can sit there with your window rolled up
Wonderinâ when the lights are gonna turn green
Never knowinâ what a couple more bucks
In his pocket might meanâ¦
(chorus)
What if heâs an angel sent here from heaven
And heâs makinâ certain that youâre doinâ your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you gonna pass that test?
You can go on with your day to day
Tryinâ to forget what you saw in his face
Knowinâ deep down couldâve been his savinâ grace
What if heâs an angel?
Thereâs a man and thereâs a woman
Livinâ right above you in apartment G
Thereâs a lot of noise coming through the ceiling
And it donât sound like harmony
You can sit there with your TV turned up
While the words in his anger fly
But come tomorrow when you see her with her shades on
Can you look her in the eye?
(chorus)
What if heâs an angel sent here from heaven
And heâs makinâ certain that youâre doinâ your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you gonna pass that test?
You can go on with your day to day
Tryinâ to forget what you saw in his face
Knowinâ deep down couldâve been his savinâ grace
What if heâs an angel?
A little girl on daddyâs lap
Hidinâ her disease with a baseball cap
You can turn the channel most people do
But what if you were sittinâ in her daddyâs shoes?
(chorus)
What if heâs an angel sent here from heaven
And heâs makinâ certain that youâre doinâ your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you gonna pass that test?
You can go on with your day to day
Tryinâ to forget what you saw in his face
Knowinâ deep down couldâve been his savinâ grace
What if heâs an angel?
