Am F
I met God's Will on a Halloween night
C G
He was dressed as a bag of leaves
Am F G
It hid the braces on his legs at first
Am F
His smile was as bright as the August sun
C G/B Am C/G
When he looked at me
F C
As he struggled down the driveway, it almost
G
Made me hurt
Fmaj7 C
Will don't walk too good
Fmaj7 C
Will don't talk too good
Fmaj7 C
He won't do the things that the other kids do,
G
In our neighborhood
[CHORUS]
C Fmaj7
I've been searchin', wonderin', thinking’
C F
Lost and lookin' all my life
C/G Am
I've been wounded, jaded, loved and hated
F G
I've wrestled wrong and right
F C
He was a boy without a father
A F
And his mother's miracle
Am G/B
I've been readin', writin', prayin', fightin'
C E(single note) F
I guess I would be still
Dm G
Yeah, that was until
Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 G
I knew God's Will
Am F
Will's mom had to work two jobs
C G
We'd watch him when she had to work late
Am F
And we'd all laugh like I hadn't laughed
G
Since I don't know when
Am F
Hey Jude was his favorite song
C G/B Am C/G
At dinner he'd ask to pray
F C G
And then he'd pray for everybody in the world but him
[REPEAT CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]
F
Before they moved to California
C
His mother said, they didn't think he'd live
Am C/G
And she said each day that I have him,
Fmaj7
well it's just another gift
F Am
And I never got to tell her, that the boy
G/B F
Showed me the truth
Dm7
In crayon red, on notebook paper, he'd written
B flat G
Me and God love you
C Fmaj7
I've been searchin', prayin', wounded, jaded
C F
I guess I would be still
Dm G
Yeah that was until...
Am F
I met God's Will on a Halloween night
C G C(add9)
He was dressed as a bag of leaves
