Verse 1:
C majorC                  G+G
Sweetheart I recall the day I first met you
               C majorC
I wonder if you remember the same
                     G+G
We talked of the love we shared for each other
                       C majorC
And longed for the day we'd change your sweet name.


Chorus:

C majorC                   G+G
Oh, I can still hear your voice in the evening
                     C majorC
I see your sweet face, your blue eyes so bright
                 G+G
God took you away and left me so lonely
                 C majorC
The angels are singing in heaven tonight.

Verse 2:

C majorC                     G+G
As the years passed away we cherished each other
                 C majorC
No worries or cares to darken our day
                   G+G
From our little home up in the Clinch Mountains
                    C majorC
The savior came down and called you one day.


Chorus:

C majorC                   G+G
Oh, I can still hear your voice in the evening
                     C majorC
I see your sweet face, your blue eyes so bright
                 G+G
God took you away and left me so lonely
                 C majorC
The angels are singing in heaven tonight.

                    C majorC
But I know you are happy and healthy up there
                    G+G
When God calls me home I'll meet you in heaven
                       C majorC
Please wait for me, darling, I'll meet you up there...

Chorus:

C majorC                   G+G
Oh, I can still hear your voice in the evening

The angels are singing in heaven tonight.
