[Verse1]
I took the s[C]upermarket flo[Em]wers from the window[F]sill
I threw the [C]day old te[Em]tea from the cup [F]
[Am] Packed up the p[G]photo album [F]Matthew [Dm7]had made [C]
Memo[F]Memories of a li[G]life that’s been loved [C]
Took the get[C]get well soon ca[Em]cards and stuffed [F]animals
Poured the [C]old ginger be[Em]beer down the sink [F]
[Am] Dad always [G]told me don’t you [F]cry when [Dm7]you’re down [C]
But mum there’s a [F]tear every [G]time that I blink [C]
[Pre-chorus1]
[Dm] Oh I’m in p[F]ieces, it’s tea[C]ring me up[G] but I know
[Dm] A heart that’s [F]broke is a he[C]heart that’s been loved [G]
[Chorus1]
So I’ll sing [C]Hallelujah [Em] [F]
You were an [G]angel in the [C]shape of my mum [Em] [F]
When I fell [G]down you’d be there
[Am]Holding me up,[F] spread your wi[C]ngs as you go[G]
And when G[Am]od takes you back,[F] he’ll say H[C]allelujah,[G] you’re home
[C] [Em] [F] [G] [C] [Em] [F]

I fluffed the pil[C]lows, made the b[Em]eds, stacked the chairs[F] up
Folded your [C]nightgowns ne[Em]neatly in a case [F]
[G] [Am] John said he’d [G]drive then put his [F]hand on my cheek [C]
And wiped a [F]tear from the s[G]side of my f[C]face
[Pre-chorus2]
[Dm] And I hope that [F]I see the w[C]world as you did[G]did cause I know
[Dm] A life with [F]love is a li[C]life that’s been lived [G]
