[Opening]
No-one on earth could feel like [Dm]this
[G]I’m thrown and overblown with [Am]bliss [F]
There must be an [Dm]angel [G]
Playing with my [C]heart

I walk into an empty [Dm]room [G]
And suddenly my heart goes “[Am]boom” [F]
It’s an orchestra of [Dm]angels [G]
And they’re playing with my [C]heart

[Bb]By celestial intervention
[C]Leavin’ me the recollection
[F]Of your heaven[G]ly connection
