Chorus:
           D
These are silver wings
           A
These are golden eyes
           Bm
These are floating clouds
           A
Angel for life

  D                             A
Dreaming alone and I feel that someone
Bm
Listens to me
           A
Angel for life

Chorus

D A            Bm
   Heaven is smiling down,
              A
heaven's girl in a wedding gown
                 D
I'm going to be so good,
             A
just like a good boy should
               Bm
I'm going to change my ways
           A
Angel for life
            D
Of all the saints alive
                     A
Don't I feel like a saint alive
                    Bm
She's not mine for eternity
                          A
Though I'll never fly so high, I'm smiling

D A              Bm
   I believe in magic
           A
Angel for life
    D   A Bm
In magic
           A
Angel for life

I believe in magic
Angel for life
In magic
Angel for life

I believe in magic
Angel for life
