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 
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 

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

'Cause I know he's here 
He's everywhere 
Take a look around oh and you will see 
That cross we bear 
It's in the air 
                                         G5 F#5 
Lord we thank you for these gifted hands 
Em                              A 
One day we'll all take that ride 
C                                            D 
And with those gifted hands I know you'll fly 
G D C G
