          G         D
The angels seek ol´den
C                        G
My five years of gold
                   G                    D
To the sweetest smile and the sweetest par
           C       G
You ever get to know
G              D
That old time
C                   G
All come round to see
           G    D
To see that child
             C      G
Mama called her adalee
G      D       C    G
Adalee, Adalee
G            D             C        G                
God sent his sweetest angel to rescue me
G                            D
Sometimes the moon it shines
           C              G
Sometimes it stays down low
G                                      D
Sometimes it hides behind the darkest clouds

          C         G
The sun came even show

G                D
When the day is a place
         C    G
In Southern Michigan
                  G                     D
When a single child shines the purest light
C                G
Onto everything

G      D       C  G
Adalee, Adalee
G                       D      C        G                
God sent his sweetest angel to rescue me
G      D       C  G
Adalee, Adalee
G                       D          C     G                
God sent his sweetest angel to rescue me

G                  D
Before she was born
C                     G
Other drowned in that sea
G                    D
Then her lost hope in love
C            G
For all he´ll ever be
G                  D
To see that people shout
C                            G
They find they raise their hands
G                            D
If they could just see the childs face
C                               G
They´d see the love from the fellow men
           G              D
So when I´m far from home
C                  G
I keep her Picture close
             G         D            C              G
For protection or the love of the angels on the know
G                      D
If you hear her voice
C                    G
Until I feel your why
G              D
Tears of laughter, tears of joy
C                       G
Just to view the angels sight
G                    D            C       G
Then one night, the holy ghost come to me
G             D                    C                 G
And said hey son, you´re a Lucky man, a Lucky man indeed
G                     D                C  G
The day is a thing you really must know
G                                   D
She wasn´t down here looking at you

C                        G
I´ll take your lonely soul
G      D       C  G
Adalee, Adalee
G                       D          C     G                
God sent his sweetest angel to rescue me
G      D       C  G
Adalee, Adalee
G                       D                C  G                
God sent his sweetest angel to rescue me
G                       D                C  G                
God sent his sweetest angel to rescue me
