Capo on 3

D
The Lord works in a strange way,
              A
There ain't no doubt,
                     Em
Man he's gonna make a man of me,
            A
He's gonna straighten me out somehow.
D
I was twenty-seven years old that summer, 
     A
just having my self a ball,
Em
Working on a record deal,
               A                     D                                   A
playing in the bars and concert halls, making money just to watch it burn, living day by day,
Em                                    A
Stayed out late drinkin' way too much, didn't act my age, 
G                    A                  G                          A
But life turned on a dime when she said, you're going to be a daddy come wintertime.
                     D
The Lord works in a strange way,
              A
There ain't no doubt,
                     Em
Man he's gonna make a man of me,
             A
He's gonna straighten me out somehow.
                      D
The lord works in a strange way,
          A
And Heaven knows,
                  Em
He's planning on a miracle,
             A
man I wonder how it's gonna go,
                    D       A
The lord works in a strange way,
Em           A
Oh oh

D                                       A
Man I never saw the changes comin' they caught me unaware,
Em                                  A
One day I was as wild as a bull the next I was a teddy bear,
D                                        A
Put down the bottle about a month before, And I put down the cigarettes,
Em                                                    A
Started holding my wife a little tighter and sayin' the prayers I used' forget,
G                       A                    G                                           
And now I look into those baby blue eyes and I find all the peace I've been searching for yeah I 
A
finally realize

                    D
The lord works in a strange way,
             A
There ain't no doubt,
                     Em
Man he's gonna make a man of me,
              A
He's gonna straighten me out somehow.
                   D
The lord works in a strange way,
               A                         Em                A
And it stirs my soul I'm holding onto a miracle and I ain't ever letting go
                    D       A
The lord works in a strange way.
                    Em                                 A
I've finally made my peace with god and I've got sweet comfort in my soul
