Oh, who would have guessed,
  F             Bb
who could have seen
F               Dm       C
Who could have possibly known
           F             C7
All these roads we have traveled,
      F           Bb
the places we've been

            F              C7
There are those who think families
 F          Bb
happen by chance

A mystery their whole life through

But we had a voice and we had a choice
         F(Dm)      C           F
We were working and waiting for you

For,out of a world so tattered and torn,
     F           C7            F         C7
You came to our house on that wonderful morn
