SHEPHERD BOY

Composed by Paul Michael

Intro: (A)-(E)-(F#m)-(E)-(A)-(E)-(F#m)-(E)

He was (A)born down the (E)road a few (A)miles from (E)here
In a (A)place called (E)Bethle(A)hem,(E)
(A)Laid in a (E)manger (A)in a (E)stable
(F#m)On the (B)edge of (E)town.
(E)Shepherds in the (F#m)field nearby
To (E)them an angel (F#m)came,
(E)Said, "Fear not, to (F#m)you this day
There (D)has been (A)born a (E)King."

Chorus:
Now (A)on this (E)day I (F#m)want to (D)say
That (A)Jesus (E)is that (A)King,(E)
And (A)I was (E)one of those (F#m)shepherd (D)boys
Who (E)heard the (D)angels (A)sing.(E)

(F#m)-(E)-(A)-(E)-(F#m)-(E)

(A)When they (E)nailed Him (A)to the (E)cross,
His (A)only (E)crown was (A)thorns,(E)
But (A)this is (E)why He (A)came to the (E)world,
Why (F#m)Jesus (B)Christ was (E)born.
We (E)were like sheep with(F#m)out a shepherd,
(E)Lost and gone a(F#m)stray,
So He (E)came to Earth that (F#m)Christmas night
To (D)light our (A)darkened (E)way.
