Intro
C    C    F   G
Verse 1
F                     F
This is the woman who had all the answers
    G                       C
The one I would lean on for comfort, for strength
      F               F
She's never forgotten one grandchild's birthday
    G                     F   C
Now she can't remember my name
       Am                 C
And it makes me so angry, I shake my fist
        F          C        G
And cry out to the heavenly one
Am                        C
Why would you play such a cold-hearted trick
F              C          G
I thought your job was to love
        F           A
And the answer came down from above
Chorus
            C                             F
She's gonna fly-y-y when her time here is thru-u-u
                          G                                C
First, she'll have to let go. . . of some things she can't use
       F          G       E            Am
'Cause people and places, memories and faces
                          F             Dm       G       C   C   F   G
Are just way too heavy it seems. . . To carry on angel's wings
Verse 2
F                     F
This is the woman who saw things so clearly
    G                          C
The one who could pick out one crumb on the floor
    F                        F
She saw through a white lie, saw me through love's eyes
    G                 F    C
She hardly can see anymore
       Am                     C
And it makes me so sad and it just isn't fair
           F          C      G
Why should so much be taken away
         Am            C
But when I cry out for all that she's lost
  F        C            G
I silently hear someone say
Chorus
            C                             F
She's gonna fly-y-y when her time here is thru-u-u
                          G                                C
First, she'll have to let go. . . of some things she can't use
       F          G       E            Am
'Cause people and places, memories and faces
                          F             Dm       G       C
Are just way too heavy it seems. . . To carry on angel's wings
Bridge
    Bb          F
And oh. . . the wonders she'll see
      Fm                                 G
And I know she'll remember to watch over me
Outro

First, she'll have to let go. . . of some things she can't use
       G          A       Gb           Bm

                          G             Em       A       Bm         A
Are just way too heavy it seems. . . To carry on angel's wings. . . oh
   G             A
To carry on. . . angel's. . . wings
