It Wasnt His Child

D


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


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


[Chorus]
Bm           A             G    
  And like a father he was 
               Bm       A
strong and kind and good
G        D               A
 And I believe he did his best
Continues after the ad
Bm          A                G  
  It wasn't easy for him but he 
           Bm       A
did all he could
G           D                  A
 His son was different from the rest
             G                    
It wasn't his child, it wasn't his
Esus4     E
 child

[Verse 3]
D    A      Bm    A      G
 And as the boy became a man
   A                 D
He took his father's hand
    A        Bm          A   G
And soon the world would all know 
why
             Esus4  E             
It wasn't his child, it wasn't his
G          A
 child


[Chorus]
Bm             A             G  
  And like his father he was 
                 Bm      A
strong and kind and good
G        D               A
 And I believe he did his best
Bm          A                G  
  It wasn't easy for him but he 
           Bm
did all he could
        Bm          A        G
He grew up with his hands in wood
       E             D     G
And he died with his hands in wood
       A     Bm    A       E
He was God's child, he was God's 
child
