Mary Did You Know Chords

(ver. 1)
Cee Lo Green
I love Cee Lo's version of this song!  Had to do it :)

Here's the link-


I didn't put 'single strum this verse' and such like I normally do 
because it's really up to you.  The whole song could be single 
strums each chord or light strumming throughout, (however, the 
bridge IS regular strumming) but really it's your choice! I'm 90% 
sure this will play along with Clay Aiken and Donny Osmond's versions 
as well. (Lyrics may be changed up a bit.)

    F                   G 
The blind will see, the deaf will hear
    Am        G     F? Am Am  (That F bugs me... see note below)
The dead will live again
    F                   E
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak
     Am            Esus*    E*      (*-once)

Mary did you know that your baby boy
     F                  Esus  E
Will one day rule the nations?
        F              G            C        G       Am
Did you know that your baby boy was heaven's perfect Lamb?
       Dm7                                Esus*  E*    Am G F E
This sleeping child you're holding is the great "I.... Am?"



Have fun and RATE :)

**If your playing along with the song, that 'F?' is the closest I
could figure out to go there. The timing is tricky. Maybe it's a 
barre chord that I don't know.  If you're singing yourself then
the F is fine but the 2 Am's after are unnecessary.  Cee Lo 
changes it up a bit there.
