Mark David Manders - Not All Angels Chords

     C
Her thoughts are scattered throughout her mind
      Dm
Like sunlight through Venetian blinds
F                                  G
Pull ‘em down just in time so the neighbors won’t know
C
Long ago she was swept off her feet
         Dm
Now the broom that kept that house so neat
F                                   G                C
Is pushed across an apartment suite on the second floor



(Chorus)
F            G           C       Am
And not all angels were meant to fly
F            G              C
Faith ain’t always what it seems
F               G         C        C/B  Am
And, Lord, you know she’d sell her very soul
F       G         C
Just to save the family



For 36 years she did her best
To teach her children self respect
Despite his temper and neglect, and occasional abuse
Now the remnants of the family that
Once posed together for a photograph
Talk behind each other’s back and disregard the truth


Chorus


Now late at night a baby weeps
On the other side of town a man can’t sleep
Maybe they both had bad dreams at the same time
The baby winds up in a rocking chair
Safe and sound since Grandma’s there
The man is left alone to stare and they both realize


Chorus
