like a poet, he began to play.

Just an old friend that hung with the band
D
A drinkin' man he had no plan
C G
but he played the 'bird, played it for free
--chorus:
G D
'Cause I know he's here, he's everywhere

Take a look around oh and you will see

That cross we bear, it's in the air

Lord we thank you for those gifted hands
--breakdown:

--verse:
There are demons we live with everyday
That tear at our hearts, and take us away
to another place, some of us don't get back
This song is for the hands of the workin' man
Who believes in himself and he understands
Love, hope, and faith are The Maker's plan
--back to the chorus--
--
Em A
One day we'll all take that ride
C D
And with those gifted hands I know you'll fly.

F-- C-- G-- (play the full bar chords here. Lots of power!)

I remember the day that he came in
I can't believe how long it's been
Like a poet, he began to play
Just an old friend that hung with the band
A drinkin' man he had no plan
But he played the 'Bird
Played it for free
'Cause I know he's here
He's everywhere
Take a look around oh and you will see
That cross we bear
It's in the air
Lord we thank you for these gifted hands
There are demons we live with every day
That tear at our hearts and take us away
To another place

This song is for the hands of the workin' man
Who believes in himself and he understands

'Cause I know he's here

One day we'll all take that ride
And with those gifted hands I know you'll fly

I remember the day that he came in
I can't believe how long it's been
Like a poet, he began to play
Just an old friend that hung with the band
A drinkin' man he had no plan
But he played the 'Bird

'Cause I know he's here
He's everywhere
Take a look around oh and you will see
That cross we bear

That tear at our hearts and take us away
