[Intro 1]
[D][A][Bm][F#m][G][D]
[F#m]He was her man,

[Verse 1]
[Bm]
she [A]was his [G]wife
And late [A]one winter [D]night
He [A]knelt by [Bm]her
As [A]she [G]gave birth
But it wasn't [Em]his [Esus4]child,[E]
It wasn't [Bm]his [G]child

[Verse 2]
[D]
[A]Yet still he [Bm]took him [A]as his [G]own
And as he [A]watched [Bm]him [A]grow[D]
[A]It brought him [Bm]joy[A][G]
But it wasn't [Esus4]his child[E]
It wasn't [G]his child
[A]

[Verse 3]
[Bm]
But like a [A]father he was
[G]strong and [Bm]kind[A][G]
And I be[D]lieve he did his
be[Asus4]st[A][Bm]
It wasn't [A]easy for him
But [G]he did all [Bm]could[G]
His son was dif[D]ferent from the [Asus4]rest[A]
It [D]wasn't [G]his child
It wasn't [Esus4]his child
[E][G]

[Verse 4]
[D]
And [A]when the [Bm]boy bec[A]ame a [G]man
He took [A]his [Bm]father[A]'s [D]hand
And [A]soon the [Bm]world
Would [A]all [G]know why
It wasn't [Esus4]his child[E]
It wasn't [Bm]his [G]chil[A]d

[Verse 5]
[Bm]But like a fathe[A]r he was stron[G]g
and [Bm]kind[A][G]
And I be[D]lieve he did his
be[Asus4]st[A][Bm]
It wasn't [A]easy for him
But [G]he did all [Bm]could
He grew up with his [A]hands in [G]wood
And he [Esus4]died with his hand[E]s in w[G]ood
He was [Bm]God's [A]child,
He was [Esus4]God's child
[E][G]

[Verse 6]
[D]
He [A]was her man
[Bm]She was [A]his wife[G]
And [A]late [Bm]one n[C#m]ight[D]
He [A]knelt by [Bm]her
As [A]she [G]gave birth
But it wasn't [Em]his [E]child[Esus4][E]
It was [G]God's child
[A]
