Intro.: |(G)(A)|(D/F#)(G)|(G)(A)|(D/F#)(G)
I'm sure he must have (G)been sur-(A)prized (Bm) at where this road (D) had taken him (A)
'Cause never in a (G)million (A)lives (Bm) would he have (A)dreamed of Bethlehem
And (D/F#)standing at the (G)manger, he (A/C#)saw with his own (D)eyes
The (Bm)message from the (E/G#)angel come to (Em)life, and (A)Joseph said
(Chorus)
Why (D) me, (A/C#) I'm just a (Bm)simple man of (A)trade
Why (G) Him with all the (G/F#)rulers in the (Em)world (A)
Why (D) here (A/C#) inside this (Bm)stable filled with (A)hay
Why (G)her, she's just an (G/F#)ordinary (Em)girl (A) (A#dim)
(Bridge)
Now I'm (Bm) not one to (F#7/A#)second guess, what (A6)angels have to (G#dim)say ---
But this is such a (A)strange way to save the world
Solo: |(G)(A)|(D/F#)(G)
To think of how it (G)could have been, (A) (Bm) if Jesus had come (A) as He deserved ---
There would have been no (G)Bethle-(A)hem, (Bm) no lowly (A)shepherds at His birth
But (F#m)Joseph knew the (G)reason love (A/C#)had to reach so (D)far
And (Bm)as he held the (E/G#)Savior in --- (Em) his arms, ---
(A) He must have thought
(Chorus)
Why (D) me, (A/C#) I'm just a (Bm)simple man of (A)trade
Why (G) Him with all the (G/F#)rulers in the (Em)world (A)
Why (D) here (A/C#) inside this (Bm)stable filled with (A)hay
Why (G)her, she's just an (G/F#)ordinary (Em)girl (A) (A#dim)
(Bridge)
Now I'm (Bm) not one to (F#7/A#)second guess, what (A6)angels have to (G#dim)say ---
But this is such a (A)strange way to save the world
Solo: |(D)(A/C#)|(Bm)(A)|(G)(D/F#)|(Em) / (A)(A#dim)
(Bridge)
Now I'm (Bm) not one to (F#7/A#)second guess, what (A6)angels have to (G#dim)say ---
But this is such a (Em)strange way (A) to save the world
(Tag)
(D) (Bm) This is such a (Em)strange way, (A)(A#dim) such a (Em)strange way (A)
A (Em)strange way (A) to save (G)the world (D/F#) (G) (A) (G/B) (A/C#) (D) -----
