No Angel Knows
By Slaid Cleaves
On a desert [G]highway, an old Chevrolet
My engine [C]dyin' trying to get a[G]way
Thinking 'bout the [G]consequences of the road I chose
Now [C]I know what [D]no angel[G] knows
She was no angel, a woman of the world
I thought I'd learn from this mystery girl
She pulled a diamond from this heart of coal
Now I know what no angel knows
Chorus:
No angel [C]knows the sin of [G]broken vow
No angel [C]knows the sufferin' of [G]love
No angel [C]knows the shame of a [G]fallen man
Now [C]I know what [D]no angel[G] knows
Well, I held her close with all my might
I held her 'til her face turned white
Now my heart sleeps where the cold wind blows
Now I know what no angel knows
Faith walks on water, hope brings it home
I never thought I'd end up alone
I once had a true heart, that was long ago
Now I know, now I know
Chorus
I once had a true heart
That's how it goes
Now I know what no angel knows
