[Intro 1]
[C][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]There was a
gentle[G]man I [C]knew[G]
[C]A stroke held his wife fas[G]t asl[F]eep
And his whole life had come down to
The vigil he would daily [C]keep[G][Am]
I asked would he rather be [Dm]free [F]?
And this is [G]how he [F]answered [C]me[F]
That's the [C]deal,
that's [G]the [F]bargain that you [C]make
That's [G]the [C]vow [F]that two hea[C]rts take
That if [F]better turns [G]to worse
you will [C]abide[F]
That's the [C]deal,
[G]if it wer[F]e not for God's gra[C]ce
I might [F]be there in her [G]place and
she'd [F]be right by my [G]side
That's [C]the deal
In my mind [G]I s[C]till hear h[G]im talk[C]
I keep those words like souvenirs
[F]Brought from a place where couples wal[Dm]k
[G]Arm[F] in arm thr[G]ough this
[F]veil [C]of tears[G][Am]
I pray [F]someday [G]for my own sak[Dm]e
[F]I find the heart I'l[G]l nev[F]er bre[C]ak[F]
That's the [C]deal,
[G]that's the bar[F]gain that you[C] make
That's [G]the [F]vow that two [C]hearts take
That if [F]better turns [G]to worse
you will [C]abide[F]
That's the [C]deal,
[G]if it wer[F]e not for[C] God's grace
I might [F]be there in her place and
she'd be right by my [G]side
That's [C]the deal
That's the [G]deal[C][F][C][F][C][F][G]

[Outro 1]
That's the deal.
