He was her man, she was his wife and late one winter night

D/F# Em D C

He knelt by her as she gave birth

Asus-A C-D-G

But it wasn't his child, it wasn't his child

D/F# Em D C D G

Yet he still took him as his own, and as he watched him grow

D/F# Em D C

It brought him joy, he loved that boy

Asus-A C... D-Em

But it wasn't his child, it wasn't his child

Chorus: But like a father he was strong and kind and good

And I believe he did his best
