Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: D

Difficulty: Intermediate

Verse 1:

            D/A           F#m
There’s an angel in the window
            Bm            D/A           F#m
On a West Virginia church door swinging open
            G             F#4  F#
And he’s pointing to the exit sign

            D/A           F#m
Said you’ll never walk on water
        Bm             D/A          F#m
If you wait until the river’s frozen over
        G         F#4 F#
In the Shenandoah summer


Chorus:

           B         G#m7
Well it was almost heaven
D#m7              C#4     C#
Choirs singing in robes of white
B       G#m7
Almost heaven
D#m7           C#4    C#
Lovers laying side by side but

B             G#m7
When we reach forever
          D#m7              C#4    C#
Will there be a place where you and I
A#m7      B
may call home
G#m7 D#m7 C#4 C#


Verse 2:

      D/A           F#m
So I keep a candle burning
      Bm               D/A              F#m
And I pray to see that saint I knew for certain
          G            F#4      F#
But it’s just my own reflection now

          D/A              F#m
And that silhouette in the window
        Bm              D/A            F#m
Is the shape of someone I don’t quite remember
  G           F#4 F#
Dancing in the fire



Chorus:

           B         G#m7
Well it was almost heaven
D#m7              C#4     C#
Choirs singing in robes of white
B       G#m7
Almost heaven
D#m7           C#4    C#
Lovers laying side by side but

B             G#m7
When we reach forever
          D#m7              C#4    C#
Will there be a place where you and I
A#m7      B
may call home
G#m7 D#m7 C#4 C#

in heaven
