                Fm       A#   Cm
Ohhhhh, angels sent from up above
              Fm      A#        Cm
You know you make my world light up
            Fm
When I was down
     A#     Cm
When I was hurt
            Fm      A#  Cm
You came to lift me up...

Life is a drink, and love's a drug
Oh now I think I must be miles up
When I was a river,
Dried up
You came to rain a flood

              Cm             G#
So drink from me, drink from me
            Fm     A#
When I was so thirsty
          Cm    G#
Pour on a symphony
       Fm
Now I just can't get enough
          Cm       G#
Put your wings on me, wings on me
            Fm    A#
When I was so heavy
          Cm    G#
Pour on a symphony
          Fm
When I'm lower, lower, lower, low

Chorus:
 G#   A#  Cm
I-Oh-ah-oh-ah
                       G#
I'm feeling drunk and high
    A#      Cm
So high, so high
 G#   A#  Cm
I-oh-ah-oh-ah
                       G#
I'm feeling drunk and high
    A#       Cm
So high, so high

Oh, angel sent from up above
I feel you coursing through my blood
Life is a drink and your love's about
To make the stars come out

Put your wings on me, wings on me
When I was so heavy
Poured on a symphony
When I'm low, low, low, low

Chorus - x2

                              G# A# Cm
Then we'll shoot across the sky
                           G# A# Cm
Then we'll shoot across the

Then we'll shoot across the sky

Then we'll shoot across the
                              G# A# Cm
Then we'll shoot across the sky
                           G# A# Cm
Then we'll shoot across the

Then we'll shoot across the sky
Then we'll shoot across the.
