Verse 1:
            G             G/B               Cadd9
I took the supermarket flowers from the windowsill
            G         G/B            Cadd9
I threw the day old tea from the cup
Em               D            G                Cadd9
   Packed up the photo albums Matthew had made
    Cadd9       D                    G
Memories of a life that’s been loved

           G             G/B               Cadd9
I took the get well soon cards and stuffed animals
             G              G/B            Cadd9
I poured the old ginger beer down the sink
Em            D                 G                    Cadd9
   Dad always told me don’t you cry when you’re down
                  Cadd9      D                 G
But mum there’s a tear every time that I blink


Pre-Chorus 1:
Am7           C              G         D
    Oh I’m in pieces it’s tearing me up but I know
Am7                C            G                     D
    A heart that’s broke is a heart that’s been loved


Chorus 1:
             G          G/B  Cadd9
So I’ll sing Hallelujah
            D            G               G/B  Cadd9
You were an angel in the shape of my mum
            D
When I fell down you’d be there
Em            C              G             D
Holding me up, spread your wings as you go
          Em                C           G         D
And when God takes you back, he’ll say Hallelujah, you’re home
G  G/B  Cadd9  D
G  G/B  Cadd9


Verse 2:
                G                    G/B            Cadd9
I fluffed the pillows, stacked the chairs, made the bed up
            G            G/B            Cadd9
Folded your nightgowns neatly in a case
Em                D                  G                Cadd9
   John said he’d drive then put his hand on my cheek
            Cadd9          D         G
And wiped a tear from the side of my face


Pre-Chorus 2:
Am7                 C          G              D
    And I hope that I see the world as you did cause I know
Am7             C           G                    D
    A life with love is a life that’s been lived


Chorus 2:
             G          G/B  Cadd9
So I’ll sing Hallelujah
            D            G               G/B  Cadd9
You were an angel in the shape of my mum
            D
When I fell down you’d be there
Em            C              G             D
Holding me up, spread your wings as you go
          Em                C           G         D
And when God takes you back, he’ll say Hallelujah, you’re home
G  G/B  Cadd9

                         G               Bm  Cmaj7
You were an angel in the shape of my mum
                          Em            C              G             D
You got to see the person I have become, spread your wings and I know that when
 Em               C             G         D            G
God took you back, he said say Hallelujah, you’re home
