[Intro] D [Verse] D G D G Upon the floor of a humble carpenter shop A7 A boy grew among the D wood chips and tools, G Learning his father's trade to D G build out of wood, A7 D Working each day by the rule. [Chorus] G D G Is not a carpenter made of wood? A D Is not a sailor made of water? G A Is the best you've done D G D always the best you could? A G D Is not a Son made of His Father? [Verse] D G D Along the shore this boy ran till G he walked away A7 D And he talked to the sailors by the sea G This man calmed the water with a D G wave of His hand A7 D And He walked to the sailors upon the sea [Chorus] G D G Is not a carpenter made of wood? A D Is not a sailor made of water? G A Is the best you've done always D G D the best you could? A G D Is not a Son made of His Father? [Interlude] D G D G A7 D G D G A7 D [Verse] D G This man suffered pain and D G ridicule for using His powers A7 D But He continued no matter the cost G Forsaken by the people D G he begged forgiveness for A7 D And He cried to His Father from the cross [Chorus] G D G Is not a carpenter made of wood? A D Is not a sailor made of water? G A Is the best you've done always D G D the best you could? A G D Is not a Son made of His Father? G D G Is not a carpenter made of wood? A D Is not a sailor made of water? G A D Is the best I've done always the best G D I could? A A G Would you forgive me, D please, my Father? [Outro] D G D G A7 D
