Through the glass in my bedroom window,

In the bushes far below,

I thought I saw an unfamiliar shadow,
G
Among the ones I so clearly know.
 
Bridge:
 
Em G A
I've been sleeping with the nightlight unplugged,

With a note on the rocking chair,

That says I'm dreaming of the life I once loved,
A
So wake me if you're out there.
 
[Refrão]G A
Living close to the ground,
Bm E
It's seventh heaven because there are angels all around,

I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts.

So wake me if you're out there!

Bm A G
I keep my knees black and blue 'cause they often hit the hardwood floor,

I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity
