[Intro]
C  G/B  Am  G  F       (x2)
 
[Verse 1]
C      G/B     Am        G       F
  Doctors have come from distant cities just to see me
C       G/B     Am  G      F
  Stand over my bed, disbelieving what they're seeing
 
[Chorus]
         C         G/B        Am
They say I must be one of the wonders
   G            F
of God's own creation
       C           G/B          Am
And as far as they see they can offer
G       F
no explanation
 
[Verse 2]
C     G/B    Am  G         F
  Newspapers ask intimate questions, want confessions
C            G/B     Am     G          F
 They reach into my head to steal the glory of my story
 
[Chorus]
         C         G/B        Am
They say I must be one of the wonders
   G            F
of God's own creation
       C           G/B          Am
And as far as they see they can offer
G       F
no explanation
 
[Bridge]
Dm   C   Am    F
           I believe
Dm    C         Am     F
  Fate smiled and destiny
Am                        F
Laughed as she came to my cradle
Am                         F
  "know this child will be able"
Am                     F
Laughed as my body she lifted
Am                         F
  "know this child will be gifted
Am                 F                 C    G   Am
  with love, with patience and with faith,
G               F
she'll make her way"
G               F
she'll make her way"
 
[Verse 3]
C       G/B   Am   G       F
  People see me,    I'm a challenge to your balance
C      G/B       Am       G       F
  I'm over your heads, how I confound you and astound you
 
[Chorus]
        C         G/B        Am
To know I must be one of the wonders
   G            F
of God's own creation
       C          G/B         Am
And as far as you see you can offer me
G       F
no explanation
 
[Bridge]
Dm   C   Am    F
           I believe
Dm    C         Am     F
  Fate smiled and destiny
Am                        F
Laughed as she came to my cradle
Am                         F
  "know this child will be able"
Am                        F
Laughed as she came to my mother
Am                          F
  "know this child will not suffer"
Am                     F
Laughed as my body she lifted
Am                         F
  "know this child will be gifted
Am                 F                 C    G   Am
  with love, with patience and with faith,
G               F
she'll make her way"

yep, sounds good thanks

Chords seem quite accurate. It is however difficult to sing this song in C major for a high baritone/tenor--much better when transposed into G major (G D Em D C progression)--also very easy to play.

Not having entire tab complete makes it difficult to scroll and learn. Basically useless. What more needs to be said! 1 star!
