[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
[Instrumental]

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
