"The Day (that you gave me a son)"





D          G                 D    G
Twas late December the news came
D          G                      D     G
And I got so excited, I cried all day
         E        A                    E
And you were such a lovely, precious sight
            A                 D
When I saw our baby in your eyes

                                G                   D
             It was like falling deep in love
                               G                  E
             I heard the angels cry above
                           A                               E
             I felt a blessing straight from God
                                  A                    G
            The day that you gave me a son


I called 'bout everyone I knew
Just think, I'll be a father 'cause of you
There's no greater love than what you gave
A brand new baby on the way
              
                        G                 D
             It was like falling deep in love
                         G           E
             I heard the angels cry above
                           A               E
             I felt a blessing straight from God
                   A                    G         D    G  D
            The day that you gave me a son

Chorus

                       B         hmmaj7                  Bm7
                    Oh such tears of joy, I've never known
                              E
                    I can't remember
                               G                 D
                    It's like a song, I've never heard
                               E                G A D
                    I've never sung, but know the words
