          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

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
