An Original Man

G

[Verse 1]

       G
A man I knew died too young
          G
And in the end his song unsung
             G
He touched my life, he touched my soul
     G
Given time he'd reach his goal

[Chorus]

     C         F      G
An original man that I knew
     Em        C      G
An original man right through

[Verse 2]

         G
A sadness hidden behind his gaze
          G
Before his time in many ways
      G
People copy, take and steal
      G
But my friend he was for real

[Chorus]

     C         F      G
An original man that I knew
     Em        C      G
An original man right through

[Verse 3]

    G
Time gives and takes away
    G
Everybody has their day
    G
Even now I see your face
         G
You never left without a trace

[Chorus]

     C         F      G
An original man that I knew
     Em        C      G
An original man right through
