I took the supermarket flowers from the windowsill

            D         F#m            G
I threw the day old tea from the cup

   Packed up the photo album Matthew had made

Memories of a life that’s been loved

Took the get well soon cards and stuffed animals

Poured the old ginger beer down the sink

   Dad always told me don’t you cry when you’re down

                  G          A                 D
But mum there’s a tear every time that I blink

Em            G              D         A
   Oh I’m in pieces, it’s tearing me up but I know

Em                G            D                     A

So I’ll sing Hallelujah

You were an angel in the shape of my mum

When I fell down you’d be there

Bm            G              D            A
Holding me up, spread your wings as you go

          Bm                G           D         A
And when God takes you back, he’ll say Hallelujah, you’re home

                 D               F#m                    G
I fluffed the pillows, made the beds, stacked the chairs up

            D            F#m            G
Folded your nightgowns neatly in a case

A Bm                A                  G                D
     John said he’d drive then put his hand on my cheek

            G              A          D
And wiped a tear from the side of my face

Em                 G          D              A
   And I hope that I see the world as you did cause I know
