The Carpenter

INTRO:
[C] [Bb] [F]
[C] [Bb] [F]

VERSE:
Granddaddy put some[C] oak from the hill
through an [Bb]old sawmill
Built the p[F]orch we were sitting on
Like a roc[C]king chair preacher,
told a stor[Bb]y that was sweeter
Than the tea [F]we were sipping on
Grandma dre[C]amed of a wrapar[Bb]ound
Took me a mo[F]nth to get the last board down
I said, "Ain[C]'t that somethi[Bb]ng?"
He said, "Thi[F]s ain't nothing"

CHORUS:
Let me tell you 'bout a [C]man whose hands
built mor[Bb]e than I ever co[F]uld
He set a world off the [C]rails on track
with some n[Bb]ails going into w[F]ood
He bore a cro[C]ss that built a b[Bb]ridge
Ain't no bro[F]ken that He can't fix
He can me[C]nd where you [Bb]hurt
Let Him in a[F]nd let Him get to work
He's the Carpen[C]ter
[Bb]Oh[F]

VERSE 2:
He said, "You sho[C]uld've seen me
'fore He he[Bb]lped me break free
From the ch[F]ains I was dragging round
We wouldn't b[C]e here talking
if I'd kep[Bb]t on walking
That roa[F]d I was going down
Don't ask me h[C]ow He made an[Bb]ything
Out of the m[F]an I used to be
I was a wo[C]rthless pile of s[Bb]craps
He said, "I'[F]m used to using that"

CHORUS:
Let me tell you 'bout a [C]man whose hands
built mor[Bb]e than I ever co[F]uld
He set a world off the [C]rails on track
with some n[Bb]ails going into w[F]ood
He bore a cro[C]ss that built a b[Bb]ridge
Ain't no bro[F]ken that He can't fix
He can me[C]nd where you [Bb]hurt
Let Him in a[F]nd let Him get to work
He's the Carpen[C]ter[Bb]

BRIDGE:
[F]Oh, He's the Carpent[C]er[Bb][F]
He'll carve you[Am] out, sand you down
Build you [Bb]up on solid ground[F]

CHORUS:
Let me tell you 'bout a [C]man whose hands
built mor[Bb]e than I ever co[F]uld
He set a world off the [C]rails on track
with some n[Bb]ails going into w[F]ood
He bore a cro[C]ss that built a b[Bb]ridge
Ain't no bro[F]ken that He can't fix
He can me[C]nd where you [Bb]hurt
Let Him in a[F]nd let Him get to work
He's the Carpen[C]ter[Bb]

OUTRO:
[F]Oh, He's the Carpe[C]nte[Bb]r[F]

He's the Carpenter
