Daddy's been a back-row Baptist with his share of front-row sin
      D                                         A7sus4                A7
Those Saturday nights still on his breath every Sunday when he'd walk in
           D                               D/F#        G
He's never led the benediction, he's never sang in the choir
            D             G        A               D      G   D   G
But he's an angel with no halo and one wing in the fire

Mama lives by the bible, the bible lives by the bed

She's lied alone so many nights with scriptures in her head

Prayin' Good Lord just be with him, I know his faith is tired
            D             G        A               D    D7
But he's an angel with no halo and one wing in the fire

      G               A              Bm
And I know he lives a little left of livin' right
    G                  A             D
And he's come close to goin' way too far a few times
        Bm               A                   G                 D
But I'd trade a thousand prayers if just one prayer would come true
      Em       D/F#     G          A          D    G     D   G
Lord, please believe in him like I believe in You

D                                      G
Daddy's always been there for me, from tee-ball to touchdowns
D                                    A7sus4              A7
Fixed my car and fixed my heart when they've been broken down
          D                                D/F#           G
I know he calls for more foregiveness than most folks do  require
            D             G        A               D     D7
But he's an angel with no halo and one wing in the fire

      G               A              Bm
And I know he lives a little left of livin' right
    G                  A             D
And he's come close to goin' way too far a few times
        Bm               A                   G                 D
But I'd trade a thousand prayers if just one prayer would come true
      Em       D/F#     G          A          D    G     D   G
Lord, please believe in him like I believe in You

Well, I just can't imagine what Heaven might be like
   D                           A7sus4       A7
If me and Mama make it without Daddy by our side
      D                                   D/F#            G
Lord, could you please remember when it's time to call us higher
             D             G        A               D        G   D   G
That he's an angel with no halo and one wing in the fire
