I met God's Will on a Halloween night
DO SOL
He was dressed as a bag of leaves
LAm FA SOL
It hid the braces on his legs at first
LAm FA
His smile was as bright as the August sun

When he looked at me
FA DO
As he struggled down the driveway, it almost
SOL
Made me hurt

Will don't walk too good

Will don't talk too good
FAmaj7 DO
He won't do the things that the other kids do,

In our neighborhood
CHORUS

I've been searchin', wonderin', thinking’
DO FA
Lost and lookin' all my life

I guess I would be still

And we'd all laugh like I hadn't laughed

Since I don't know when

Hey Jude was his favorite song

At dinner he'd ask to pray
FA DO SOL
And then he'd pray for everybody in the world but him
[REPEAT CHORUS]

Before they moved to California

And she said each day that I have him,
FAmaj7
well it's just another gift
FA LAm
And I never got to tell her, that the boy
SOL/SI FA
Showed me the truth
REm7
In crayon red, on notebook paper, he'd written
B flat G
Me and God love you
DO FAmaj7
I've been searchin', prayin', wounded, jaded
