"Paper Angels" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Jimmy Wayne. It was released in October 2004 as the fourth single from his debut album Jimmy Wayne. Wayne wrote the song with Don Sampson.
The song is about the Salvation Army's Angel Tree program, in which the organization decorates a Christmas tree with paper angels representing children who are in need. It is in a moderately slow tempo and the key of A major, with a main chord pattern of A-E/G♯-F♯m7-D.[2]
Wayne later wrote a novel, also titled Paper Angels, about a family who is aided by the Salvation Army's program.[3]
