Angels Look In Your Mothers Eyes

C
Me and some of the boys were sitting around the other night
F                                                C
Started talking about politics religion love and life

And what a shame it was about 9/11
F
And what about hell and what about heaven
C
And is there or isn't there angels here on earth
F
And then one guy said well you can take that for what it's worth
C                                              G7
If it's something I can see or something I can touch
                                 C
Well I might believe in all that stuff

So I just had to say to him


[Chorus]
C                                            F
Are you telling me that you've never seen an angel
C                                       Dm   G7
Never felt the presence of one standing by
C
No robe of white no halo in sight
         E7                      Am
Well you missed the most obvious thing
F                 Dm                        C
Man are you blind just look in your mothers eyes


[Verse 2] (Spoken)
C
And then I said who went through the pain
F                                               C
And smiled through the tears on the day of your birth

She counted your fingers and toes and thanked God you were whole
F
Son you outta know who loved you first that's right
C
And who always came running every time you cried out
F
And how many more things have you forgotten about

And who tried their best to teach you wrong from right
C                                        G7
And how many nights did she leave on the light

While she waited and prayed that you came in
    C
And who'd be there for you right up to the end

Think about it now:


[Chorus]
C                                            F
Are you telling me that you've never seen an angel
C                                       Dm   G7
Never felt the presence of one standing by
C
No robe of white no halo in sight
         E7                      Am
Well you missed the most obvious thing
F                 Dm                        C
Man are you blind just look in your mothers eyes


F                     Dm                        C
Aww man are you blind just look in your mothers eyes
