He actually does it a half step lower, but who can play an E flat minor?

             Em             D
Mary did you know that your baby boy
      C               B7
would someday walk on water?
             Em             D
Mary did you know that your baby boy

would save our sons and daughters?

Did you know that your baby boy
    G       D        Em
has come to make you new?
     Am7
This child that you've delivered
     Em7          B7
will soon deliver you.
             Em             D
Mary did you know that your baby boy
     C               B7
will give sight to a blind man?
             Em             D
Mary did you know that your baby boy
     C                 B7
will calm a storm with His hand?

Did you know that your baby boy
    G            D      Em
has walked where angels trod?
            Am7
When you've kissed your little baby
            Em                 B7
then you've kissed the face of God.

The blind will see, the deaf will hear
    G                Em
the dead will live a-gain
    C                   D
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak
    G              B7
the praises of the Lamb.
              Em             D
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
   C              B7
is Lord of all creation?
              Em             D
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
     C                B7
will one day rule the nations?
        C              D
Did you know that your baby boy
    G        D       Em
was heaven's perfect lamb?
     Am7
This sleeping child you're holding
       Em7    B7  Em
is the great "I   AM".

D   C   B

Em  D   C  B - B7 - Em

If you want to play a half a step lower put your capo on the first fret and tune your guitar to standard tuning....take the capo off and it will be "Eb,Bb,Gb,Db,Ab,Eb," ;-)

If you are a true guitarist, then E-flat minor should be a piece of cake. There are some chords left out, such as the "walking bass" at "has come to make you new" (stack chord) ---- G D/F# Em (not C) Em/D; also into the next line : "this child" ... the chords Am7/C Bflat7 sus to Bflat7.

In the chorus there's a drone bass almost throughout: Am7/B Bm7 Em7/B Am7/B,
Bm7 Em B7sus B

Very Nice! Though, if any one sees this, does it match up with the new Kutless version of the song? And if it doesn't, where can I find the right chords?
