[G]
He [D]was her

[Verse 1]
[Em]man,[D]she was his wife[C]
And [D]late one winter night,
[G]He kne[D]lt by her[Em]
[D]As she [C]gave birth
But it wasn't [Asus4]his child[A],
It wasn't [Asus4]his child[C]

[Verse 2]
[G]
Yet [D]still he [Em]took him [D]as his [C]own
And as he [D]watched him [G]grow,
It [D]brought him [Em]joy[G][D][C]
But it wasn't [Asus4]his child[A]
It wasn't [C]his child
[D]

[Verse 3]
[Em]
But like a [G]father [D]he was [G]strong
[C]and kin[Em]d[G][C]
And I [G]believe he did his
be[D]st[Dsus4][D][Em]
It wasn't [D]easy [G]for him,
But [C]he did all [Em]could,[C]
His son [G]was different from
[D]the rest[Dsus4][D]
It wasn't [C]his child,
It wasn't [Asus4]his child
[A][C]

[Verse 4]
[G]
And [D]when the [Em]boy be
[D]came [C]a man
He took his [D]father's [G]hand
And [D]soon the [Em]world
Would [D]all [C]know why
It wasn't [Asus4]his child[A],
It wasn't [C]his child
[D]

[Verse 5]
[Em]
But like a [D]father he was strong
[C]and kin[Em]d[D][C]
And I [G]believe he did his
[D]best[Dsus4][D][Em]
It wasn't [D]easy [G]for him,
But [C]he did all [Em]could,
He grew up with his hand[D]s in w[C]ood
And he [Asus4]died with his
[A]hands [C]in wood
He was [Em]god's [G]child,
He [D]was [Asus4]god's child
[A][C]

[Verse 6]
[G]
He [D]was her [Em]man,
She [G]was his [C]wife
And late [D]one [G]night
He [D]knelt by [Em]her
As [D]she [C]gave birth
Bit it wasn't [Am]his [Asus4]child,[A]
It was [C]god's child
[Dsus4]
