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


         G
'Cause I know he's here
     D
He's everywhere
C                                  G
Take a look around oh and you will see
     G
That cross we bear
     D
It's in the air
C                                  G
Lord we thank you for these gifted hands

          G
There are demons we live with every day
     D
That tear at our hearts and take us away
   C
To another place
                     G
Some of us don't get back
     G
This song is for the hands of the workin' man
    D
Who believes in himself and he understands
C                                     G
Love, hope, and faith are The Maker's plan


         G
'Cause I know he's here
     D
He's everywhere
C                                  G
Take a look around oh and you will see
     G
That cross we bear
     D
It's in the air
C                                  G
Lord we thank you for these gifted hands

Bridge:

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